About the Porsche 911 997 GT3 Cup Jacob & Co #98 P. Ma Carrera Cup Asia 2007 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: This Minichamps 1:43 diecast reproduces P. Ma's #98 Jacob and Co Porsche 911 997 GT3 Cup from the 2007 Carrera Cup Asia season. The body is a sealed zinc casting with tampo-printed sponsor graphics. A compact piece for a regional cup-car collection.
Luxury-brand sponsorship was common on Carrera Cup Asia grids in the late 2000s, giving several cars in the field a distinctive look beyond the usual motorsport partners, and this Jacob and Co livery is one of the more striking examples from 2007.
Casting Quality on a Small-Scale Racer
Minichamps builds this 997 GT3 Cup as a one-piece sealed zinc shell, the construction approach that lets a 1:43 racing casting hold sharp, consistent body lines without the wider tolerances a hinged shell would need at this size. The Jacob and Co branding is tampo-printed rather than decal-applied, which keeps fine lettering legible along the door panels and rear quarter. The rear wing and front splitter are separately molded and fitted, preserving the correct aggressive stance of a cup racer over a road-going 911. Paint finish stays flat and consistent across the livery, an accurate match to a vinyl-wrapped competition car rather than a polished street model.
Fitting a Distinctive Livery Into a Collection
Unusual sponsor liveries like this one are the pieces that make a full-grid one-make collection interesting, since factory and title-sponsor cars tend to be easier to find. At 1:43, a dozen grid entries fit a single shelf without the space a 1:18 GT model would demand, letting a collector reconstruct an entire season's field. Keep the model away from direct sunlight to preserve the printed graphics, and handle it by the underbody to protect the thin molded wing.
