About the BMW M235i Pixum Team #309 Fischer / Konnerth 24 Hours of Nurburgring 2015 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 BMW M235i Racing Cup reproduces the #309 Pixum Team entry driven by Fischer and Konnerth at the 2015 Nurburgring 24 Hours, in sealed diecast with tampo-printed cup livery. The M235i Cup filled the Nordschleife grid with identical one-make racers, a grassroots counterpoint to factory GT3 machinery.

The Nurburgring 24 Hours grid runs to well over a hundred cars split across many classes, and the BMW M235i Racing Cup supplied a large, closely-matched block of them. Built as an accessible one-make series rather than a factory GT programme, the M235i gave gentleman drivers and rising talent wheel-to-wheel racing, and Minichamps' 1:43 casting reproduces the #309 Pixum Team entry from the 2015 running.

Minichamps' 1:43 M235i Racing Cup Casting

Sealed Body and Pixum Team Decal Work

As with the GT3 subjects in this range, the M235i Racing Cup arrives as a sealed one-piece diecast shell, and that construction serves a livery-led subject well: the Pixum Team's graphics run continuously across the doors and roof without a hinge line breaking up the design. Car number 309 sits correctly placed, matched against the team's colour scheme, and the tampo-printed sponsor logos hold crisp edges rather than the raised look older transfer methods leave behind. Because the M235i Cup fielded dozens of nearly identical cars each weekend, decal accuracy and correct number placement matter more than usual here; it is the detail that lets a collector tell one entry apart from another on the same grid.

A Touring Silhouette Built for Close Racing

Unlike the flared, downforce-shaped bodywork of a GT3 car, the M235i Racing Cup kept close to its road-going silhouette, a compact coupe shape with only modest aerodynamic additions and a straightforward roll cage visible through the glazing. Minichamps holds that stock-derived proportion accurately at 1:43, and the wheel arches, splitter and rear diffuser are all sized correctly against the standard M235i rather than exaggerated for effect. That restraint is the point: the Cup series was designed around close, affordable racing rather than aerodynamic development, and a faithful casting should look closer to a road car in a roll cage than to a purpose-built prototype.

An Entry Point Into GT-Style Endurance Racing

BMW built the M235i Racing Cup as a one-make series specifically to lower the cost of entry into serious circuit racing, supplying identical, carefully balanced cars so that results came down to driving rather than budget. That approach filled a large section of the Nurburgring 24 Hours grid with M235i Cup cars running in their own class, a grassroots counterpoint to the factory-backed GT3 and GT4 efforts further up the results sheet. For many drivers, a Cup season on the Nordschleife was a stepping stone toward GT3 machinery later in their careers, which gives cars like this genuine developmental significance beyond their modest specification.

Fischer, Konnerth and Pixum Team's Weekend

Fischer and Konnerth shared driving duties on the #309 car for Pixum Team through the 2015 event, one of dozens of similarly equipped crews tackling the same 24-hour format that tests the factory GT3 entries. Their result sits in the record books alongside every other Cup entry from that weekend, a detail collectors researching this specific car and season can confirm through Nurburgring 24 Hours archives. Displayed next to a GT3 car from the same event, this M235i tells the other half of the Nordschleife's story, the huge supporting field that makes the race a genuine 24-hour spectacle rather than a headline battle between a handful of factory teams.

Where the M235i Cup Fits on a Racing Shelf

A sealed body suits this subject well, since the M235i Cup's story is told through livery and stance rather than any mechanical detail worth opening up. It works best paired with GT3 or GT4 entries from the same Nurburgring 24 Hours running, illustrating the full spread of a single race's grid from factory effort down to grassroots one-make racer, or as part of a dedicated BMW motorsport collection tracing the M235i's role as a stepping stone series. At 1:43 several Cup liveries fit easily on one shelf. Check the sharpness of the sponsor decals and the number placement before buying, since those are the details that separate one Cup entry from the next nearly identical car on the same grid.
