About the Porsche 911 996 GT3 RS #290 N. Bartels / H. Jacksties / F. Lorenzo Yokohama 24 Hours of Nurburgring 2003 AUTOart 1:18

TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Porsche 911 996 GT3 RS #290 carries the Yokohama livery from the 2003 24 Hours of Nurburgring, driven by Bartels, Jacksties and Lorenzo. Accurate race graphics and GT3-spec bodywork make it a focused piece for endurance racing collectors.

The Nurburgring 24 Hours has long been a proving ground for GT3-class Porsches, and this #290 entry captures one specific car from the 2003 race rather than a generic road-going 996.

Reproducing a Race Livery in AUTOart Diecast

Livery accuracy is the whole point of a numbered race car diecast, and AUTOart applies the #290 Yokohama graphics with clean edges and correctly placed sponsor decals rather than approximated colour blocks. The GT3 RS bodywork carries the wider arches, fixed rear wing and deeper front splitter that distinguish the race-prepared 996 from a standard 911, and those add-on panels are moulded with sharper definition than a road-car casting needs. Underneath, the model rides on the lowered stance and wider-track wheels the class demanded, giving it a purposeful crouch on the shelf that a street 911 diecast cannot replicate. This remains diecast construction rather than resin, so opening doors are typical, though a race livery like this is often displayed closed to keep the graphics uninterrupted.

The 2003 Nurburgring 24 Hours and GT3-Class Racing

The Nurburgring 24 Hours runs on the demanding Nordschleife circuit, and GT3-class Porsches have long formed the backbone of its entry list thanks to the model's reliability over such a punishing distance. This particular #290 car, driven by N. Bartels, H. Jacksties and F. Lorenzo under Yokohama colours, represents exactly the kind of privateer-and-tyre-sponsor entry that fills the class every year, the sort of detail that gives a race diecast genuine provenance rather than a generic paint job.

Building a Nurburgring GT3 Collection Around This Car

This 996 GT3 RS pairs naturally with other Nurburgring-liveried GT3 diecast across generations, letting a collector trace the class's evolution car by car.
