About the Porsche 911 930 Almeras Biturbo 3.3 Silver Kess 1:18
TL;DR: This Kess Porsche 911 930 Almeras Biturbo 3.3 in Silver is a sealed resin replica of a rare French tuner conversion, built by a specialist known for small-batch coverage of Porsche and other niche subjects mainstream manufacturers skip. Its 1993 build date places it late in the 930's production life.
Some Porsche variants never reached large audiences even in period, and this is one of them: a French tuning house's own take on the already-potent 930 Turbo.
Resin Precision for a Rare Tuner Conversion
Kess works in small-batch resin, a production approach that suits low-volume and specialist subjects like this Alméras conversion far better than diecast tooling economics would allow. The sealed body holds sharp, consistent lines around the 930's flared wheel arches and rear wing, details a tuner house typically reworked by hand on the real car. Silver paint here reads clean and factory-plausible rather than showy, letting the flared bodywork itself carry the visual statement rather than a loud custom finish. As with all sealed resin, there are no opening doors or hood, a fair tradeoff for the surface precision a subject this obscure benefits from.
Alméras and the French Porsche Tuning Tradition
Alméras Frères built a reputation in France for reworking Porsche 911s, particularly turbocharged variants, with the Biturbo 3.3 representing one of their more ambitious twin-turbo conversions of the 930 platform. That specialist, low-volume history is exactly the kind of subject resin manufacturers can cover where mainstream diecast producers won't.
A Niche Addition to a Serious Porsche Collection
This Almeras Biturbo suits a collector already past the common 930 Turbo variants and looking for genuine tuner-history depth. At around 22cm, it displays comfortably alongside factory 930s, where the flared arches make an immediate visual case for its distinct identity.
