So I started putting together my first "real" LEGO kit, the Porsche 911 RSR... Is it normal for the pieces to be in random, unmarked bags? There seems to be no rhyme nor reason to which parts are in which bags.

All of the "knockoff" kits have bags that numbered are for stages and/or for steps 1-50 type. The LEGO kit I'm doing is just literally random.

If this is what the legit stuff has to offer, I'll stick with the knockoffs lol.

Every Lego kit I’ve gone comes with numbered bags for each step in the builders manual. Sometimes there are smaller bags within the larger ones that have random pieces. But even though are used in the srptage being built. You will also find random spare pieces that initially drove me nuts unt you realize they are extras.

Edit: Well this is interesting. I downloaded the builders manual for your model and it doesn’t have stage building showing numbered bags. Very interesting.

Every kit we have built to date (even very recent releases), have had numbered bags.

The latest kits seem to have changed from cellophane bags, to (tough) paper bags.

Yeah I am very disappointed with this kit so far... I've spent more time looking for parts than I have building

Shoot an e-mail to Lego. I've always found them to be very responsive.

The weird part is one bag (our of like 12 or so) was numbered, but as you say, there was no reference to that number anywhere in the builders manual.

Well it was annoying, but it's done

Just how big of a house do you have?

Lol, bigger than I need, ~2,000 sq ft for me and a cat, but the cars aren't taking up much space

And another one done... this one was pretty challenging, over 4,700 pieces!

May want to check some of those nose pieces. Looks complicated, but a little asymmetrical left to right there.

Probably active aero for cornering.

Whoops. FIxed (I think)

No that was just me not being OCD enough, likely tweaked it a bit when I was putting all the assemblies together.
It does actually have adjustable aero (likely not very noticeable from pics) and active suspension adjustment based on steering input

All good. Was just being a smart ... .
