Porsche 963 4.6L Turbo V8 #6 2023 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale
This is the Porsche 963 4.6L Turbo V8 #6 2023 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale by IXO.
Kévin Estre (France), André Lotterer (Germany), and Laurens Vanthoor (Belgium) teamed up in the Porsche 963 #6 for Porsche Penske Motorsport in the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans, part of the FIA World Endurance Championship’s top Hypercar class. This high‑tech hybrid prototype, blending a powerful 4.6 L twin‑turbo V8 with hybrid systems, was a contender from the start — Estre put it on pole in Hyperpole qualifying before the gruelling race. Over the 24 hours the team battled through changing conditions and fierce competition from rivals like Ferrari and Toyota, but off‑track incidents and repairs dropped them down the order, and they ultimately finished 11th overall after recovering from crashes and technical setbacks. The 2023 Le Mans stood out as part of Porsche’s early forays with the new 963 Hypercar in endurance competition, highlighting both the potential and the challenges of the next‑generation prototype era at one of motorsport’s most iconic races.
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.
