Jada Corvette C6-R #3 31651: Compuware 1:24 Race-Car Guide
Jada item 31651 represents the white #3 Compuware 2005 Chevrolet Corvette C6-R associated in the product identity with drivers Olivier Beretta and Oliver Gavin. The 1:24 Bigtime Muscle model includes opening doors, a visible roll cage, rubber tires and a detailed racing interior.
The race number and livery matter as much as the vehicle name. Match #3, the white Compuware graphics and item 31651; another C6-R number or color is a separate release.

Why the #3 Compuware identity matters
Race-car models are defined by more than body shape. Number, sponsor arrangement, driver names, wheel treatment and year all help distinguish one Corvette C6-R release from another. A white C6-R without the correct #3 graphics should not be cataloged as item 31651.
The driver names identify the represented car and release. They should not be used to claim a particular race result unless the package or another verified source names the event.
Using the opening doors to show the cockpit
The doors provide the clearest view of the roll cage, racing seat and stripped competition interior. Open one side at a time while the car rests on a level surface.
- Support the chassis before moving a door.
- Stop at the natural hinge limit.
- Do not lift the model by a door, rear wing or mirror.
- Do not pry at the hood; no opening hood is confirmed for item 31651.
- Close both doors before moving or repacking the car.
Choosing the best display angle
A front three-quarter view shows the Corvette nose, #3 graphics and one side of the livery. A side view makes the Compuware branding and race-car proportions easier to read. A slightly elevated angle reveals the roll cage through the windows.
White paint benefits from a darker neutral base. Avoid a bright white shelf that erases the lower body outline. Soft side lighting brings out the body shape without creating glare on the printed graphics.
Recording the model correctly
Use the full collection entry: 2005 Chevrolet Corvette C6-R #3 Compuware / Beretta–Gavin / Jada 31651. Keep the subject year separate from the miniature’s purchase date.
Save the window box even when the car is displayed loose. The race graphics and driver identity on the package provide useful evidence if the model is later compared with another C6-R.
Arrival checklist
- Confirm item 31651 and UPC 801310316511.
- Match the white #3 Compuware graphics.
- Check that the package identifies Olivier Beretta and Oliver Gavin.
- Inspect the rear wing, mirrors, door edges and tires before unpacking fully.
- Look through the windows for the roll cage and any loose cockpit part.
- Set the model on a level surface and confirm even tire contact.
- Test the doors one at a time and save the fitted packaging.
Who this model suits
Jada 31651 is a strong fit for Corvette racing collectors, C6-R displays, Compuware-livery collections and 1:24 race-car shelves. It is especially useful for collectors who want visible competition-cockpit detail without assembling a plastic kit.
