About the Porsche 911 993 GT2 #01 H. Haywood 24 Hours of Daytona 1993 Anson 1:18

TL;DR: Anson's 1:18 diecast Porsche 911 993 GT2 reproduces the #1 Hurley Haywood entry from the 1993 24 Hours of Daytona, Porsche's homologation-special GT racer in period livery. The body opens to show interior and chassis detail beneath, an accessible entry point into 1990s IMSA GT Porsche collecting.

The 993-generation GT2 was Porsche's answer to GT-class homologation rules, a stripped, turbocharged 911 built to win races rather than impress at a dealership. Hurley Haywood, with deep roots in Daytona's endurance racing history by 1993, campaigned this very configuration in IMSA competition, and Anson's diecast captures the car's wing, flared arches, and sponsor graphics at a scale large enough to appreciate from across a room.

Anson's Porsche 993 GT2 in Haywood's 1993 Daytona Livery

A Homologation Special Built for GT Racing

Porsche developed the 993 GT2 in the early 1990s specifically to satisfy homologation requirements for international GT racing, stripping weight from the standard 911 and adding a twin-turbocharged flat-six, a fixed rear wing, and widened fiberglass arches to cover racing rubber. It was never meant as a street car first, the road-going version existed mainly to legalize the competition cars that followed. That racing-first philosophy is exactly what the #1 car campaigned at the 1993 24 Hours of Daytona represents, part of the long-running IMSA GT tradition where production-based Porsches regularly ran against purpose-built prototypes and held their own on reliability if not outright pace.

Hurley Haywood's Endurance Pedigree

Haywood's name on any Porsche endurance entry carries weight few drivers can match, with multiple overall victories at both the Daytona 24 Hours and the Le Mans 24 Hours built over a career spent largely in Porsche machinery. By 1993 he was deep into a second act of his career, campaigning GT-class cars rather than outright prototypes, and the #1 GT2 reflects that chapter of IMSA competition rather than his earlier overall-win years. Anson reproduces the livery accurately enough to read the sponsor placement and car number at a glance, which is the detail that actually matters to a collector chasing a specific driver's history rather than a generic GT2 in plain colors.

Entry-Level Diecast and an Opening Body Shell

Anson's Mass-Market Diecast Approach

Anson built its reputation in the 1990s on accessible diecast across a wide range of scales, prioritizing broad subject coverage over the hand-finished detail a premium resin specialist would bring to the same car. That positions this GT2 at the entry tier of 1:18 Porsche collecting, a real trade-off worth stating plainly: panel gaps run wider than a limited-run alternative would allow, and interior texture is simplified rather than hand-painted in multiple passes. What the tier does deliver is scale and heft at a price that makes a Haywood-liveried Porsche realistic for a collector who is not chasing investment-grade pieces, just an honest shelf presence for a genuine piece of IMSA history.

A Body That Opens to Show What's Underneath

Unlike the sealed-body models common at lower price points, this GT2 articulates, the shell lifting to expose chassis and cabin detail beneath rather than presenting a single fixed casting. That matters for a racing subject, where the roll cage, bucket seat, and stripped-out door panels are as much a part of the story as the exterior livery. The panel settles with a defined stop rather than swinging loose, a small but real sign that Anson put thought into the mechanism rather than treating it as an afterthought. For a Porsche built to be driven hard and rebuilt fast, a model that opens up feels closer to the real car's working nature than a display-only shell would.

Where This GT2 Fits in an IMSA Collection

Pairing With Other Early-1990s GT Racers

This GT2 earns its place in a collection built around 1990s IMSA GT racing rather than as a standalone showpiece, a companion to other production-based racers from the same window, Corvettes, Nissans, and rival Porsches that filled the same grids. Entry-tier diecast like this is the practical way to chase an entire era of liveries without premium-resin pricing on every car, and the opening body shell adds genuine display value a sealed casting could not. Haywood's name is the draw here, and for American collectors who followed his Daytona career, owning the #1 car from this specific IMSA season is a direct line to that history. Anyone looking to buy an affordable, display-ready piece of early-1990s Porsche GT racing will find this a reasonable starting point.
