Tamiya ventured into the modeling business in 1948, with a scale wooden ship model kit. Since then, Tamiya has been striving to offer merchandise that can truly be called 'First in Quality Around the World.' Now Tamiya is offering more than 300 different products, both in the fields of precision static models and high performance radio control vehicles. These products are not only sold in Japan but also exported in vast quantities to the United States, Europe, South East Asia, and to many other parts of the world. The standard of excellence achieved by Tamiya is regarded as among the very finest in the world of model hobbies. This finely detailed plastic model kit requires assembly and painting. Item is brand new and in its original factory packaging. Listing images are stock pictures provided by the manufacturer or the distributor. The Porsche 911 GT1 debuted in 1996 and was designed to compete in top level endurance races, with a wide and low silhouette that was honed-in wind tunnels and featured design cues such as a roof air intake, bulging fenders and a downforce-boosting rear diffuser. While the head- and taillights still bore resemblance to the 911 production car, it is no exaggeration to say that this was a highly modified, pure racing version of the car: the chassis rear was redeveloped into a space frame, and a 3,166cc flat-six engine was stowed midships; a pair of turbochargers combined to give an awesome output of 640hp. Its double wishbone suspension had horizontal dampers and pushrods. In its maiden 1996 season it achieved second and third places in perhaps the most famous event on the calendar, also taking victories in races at Brands Hatch and Spa. This is a plastic model assembly kit depicting the car which competed in the 1996 running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The low, side form of the car is recreated in style, with depictions of the midship twin turbo engine and suspension. Features a realistic interior with roll cage, plus a removable rear cowl component. Decals are included to recreate the livery.
