About the Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 #96 M. Hakkinen AMG Customer Sports 6 Hours of Zhuhai ILMC 2011 Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 #96 reproduces Mika Hakkinen's AMG Customer Sports entry at the 6 Hours of Zhuhai in the 2011 ILMC, as a sealed, one-piece body casting. It ties a Formula One champion's name to AMG's GT3 customer racing program.
Mika Hakkinen's return to competitive racing with AMG's GT3 program gave this SLS livery genuine star power, and the Zhuhai round of the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup ties the model to a specific, documented event.
A Sealed Racing Body With Named Driver Livery
With no opening panels, the SLS AMG GT3's widened wheel arches and low front splitter read as one continuous racing shape, and Minichamps applies the AMG Customer Sports livery with the clean sponsor and number registration the manufacturer is known for. The zinc alloy body carries genuine weight, and the gullwing-inspired road car's proportions still show through beneath the wide-body racing kit, a nice detail on a subject derived from one of Mercedes' most visually distinctive supercars.
A Notable Name in AMG's Customer Racing Program
Hakkinen's involvement gives this specific livery real standing among GT3 collectors, distinguishing it from a generic customer-team entry with no notable driver attached. Displayed within a GT3 and GT4 racing collection, this SLS sits alongside AMG's broader customer motorsport push during the early 2010s, a program that put the brand's road cars into serious international competition. For a collector chasing named-driver GT3 history or building an AMG racing archive specifically, this Zhuhai entry is a genuinely well-documented, notable piece.
