Below average

#42 of 56 Speed Champions sets with 200–499 pieces

Lightning McQueen comes with no minifigure, a lower rate than almost every set in its group, and that drags the score down. Plastic per dollar and pieces (95 per $10 against 101) are a little below typical, and at $27.99 it costs about 17% more than its contents usually sell for. A 4.2 rating shows builders still like it.
