A Technic masterpiece by Ferrari®

Released in 2022, this LEGO® Technic set recreates the Ferrari® Daytona SP3, an Italian supercar built in a very limited series. The LEGO® model has 3,778 pieces. It retails at $449.99 before retirement.

Under the rear hood, a miniature V12 faithfully mirrors the layout of the real engine. The F1-style dual-clutch gearbox and pushrod suspension give the build a rare level of detail.

Why this set is a cult classic

The bodywork follows every curve of the real Daytona SP3. The butterfly doors open just like the original. The aerodynamics, wheels, and cockpit all respect the proportions of the full-size car.

Few Technic sets reach this level of realism on such a recent supercar. That is what makes it a reference piece for LEGO® Technic collectors.

July 31, 2026: the end of official sales

The 42143 is part of a wave of more than 130 LEGO® sets retiring that day. Once stock runs out at LEGO® and official retailers, the set will no longer be produced.

As with other iconic Technic sets retired before it, a rise in secondary market value is likely. Buyers who want a new, still-sealed copy should act before stock runs out.

Display your Ferrari® Daytona SP3 with a Kadris® wall art piece

A build of this scale deserves better than a shelf. Kadris® creates premium aluminum wall art from photos of built LEGO® sets, like this 42143.

This supercar is set to join the standard Kadris® collection. It is exactly the type of set targeted by our automotive range.

In the meantime, a custom wall art piece for your Ferrari® Daytona SP3 can already be ordered on our custom page.

LEGO® 42143 Ferrari® Daytona SP3: Last Chance Before It Retires on July 31, 2026: what “retired” means for buyers

Quick answer: retirement means LEGO® production or official catalogue availability has ended or is ending; it does not mean every retailer sells out on the same day. Stock can remain available for a while, and marketplace prices may move in either direction.

How should remaining offers be compared?

Use the exact set number, check whether the item is new and sealed, and include delivery in the total. A dramatic discount percentage is less useful than the final amount paid to a reliable seller. If box condition matters, confirm it before ordering.

Is urgency always justified?

No. Availability does become less predictable, but artificial urgency can lead to a poor purchase. Decide whether you want the set to build, display, gift or collect, then set a budget. A retired product is not automatically a good investment and future value is never guaranteed.

What should collectors record?

Keep the set reference, purchase date, retailer and condition information. If you intend to build it, plan the display space before buying: large retired sets often remain boxed simply because their final dimensions were underestimated.

How can the completed set be presented?

Choose a stable location away from direct sun and narrow walkways. A wall display can free shelf space and keep the model's main profile visible, while a closed case offers the strongest dust protection. The right solution depends on access, room layout and model weight.

Is the LEGO® set included with a Kadris display?

No, unless the relevant product page explicitly says otherwise. Kadris supplies the compatible aluminium display, its mounting system and the selected finish. Sets and minifigures shown in photographs illustrate the possible result.

How should the model be protected over time?

Keep it away from direct sunlight, strong heat and narrow passageways. Vertical presentation can greatly limit dust accumulation compared with a crowded shelf, but it does not replace occasional gentle cleaning or a closed display case.
