About the Porsche 911 993 Almeras GT1 Blue Kess 1:18

TL;DR: Kess's 1:18 resin Porsche 911 993 Almeras GT1 in Blue reproduces Andre Almeras's road-going take on GT1-style bodywork applied to the 993 generation. Sealed resin construction in a small run suits this rare tuner subject, giving collectors of independent Porsche history a piece most catalogues never cover.

A GT1-inspired 993 built by a specialist French workshop rather than Porsche's own competition department is the kind of subject that separates a serious variant collection from a general one.

Almeras's Road-Going GT1 Interpretation

Where Porsche's factory 911 GT1 was a homologation special built for endurance racing, Almeras applied that aggressive wide-body, deep-splitter look to the road-going 993 as an independent tuning exercise, giving buyers race-derived visual drama without the competition pedigree or price of an actual works GT1. It is exactly the kind of variant that exists in tiny numbers, built by hand rather than assembly line, and largely unknown outside dedicated Porsche circles.

Resin Detail for an Aggressive Body Kit

The 993's rounded, organic shape combined with a wide GT1-style kit demands crisp, consistent surfacing around the flared arches and rear wing, which sealed resin delivers more reliably than a diecast body carrying opening-door hinges through the same flares. Kess's Blue finish sits well against the GT1 kit's aggressive lines, and the absence of opening features is a fair trade for the surface precision the bodywork actually needs.

A Deep-Cut Piece for 911 Variant Collectors

This model suits a collection already built around unusual air-cooled 911 history rather than a first Porsche purchase. Set beside a standard 993 or a genuine works GT1 replica, it tells a specific, independent chapter of Porsche tuning that few other manufacturers have bothered to document.
