Nissan R390 GT1 3.5L Turbo #32 3rd 1998 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale
This is the Nissan R390 Gt1 3.5L Turbo #32 3rd 1998 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale by Gt Spirit.
At the 1998 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Nissan R390 GT1 No. 32, driven by Kazuyoshi Hoshino, Aguri Suzuki, and Masahiko Kageyama, secured a remarkable 3rd-place overall finish—marking Nissan’s best result at Le Mans up to that point. The R390 GT1, powered by a 3.5L twin-turbo V8, was the product of a collaboration with Tom Walkinshaw Racing and featured aerodynamic refinements for endurance success. The Japanese driver trio brought both speed and consistency, with Hoshino and Suzuki being veterans of Formula One and Kageyama a top talent in Japan’s touring and endurance scene. This race stood out not only for Nissan’s podium breakthrough but also for being a rare year in which three R390s finished in the top 10, establishing the car’s endurance credentials in an era dominated by Porsche, Toyota, and BMW.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
