Tamiya 58682 Audi V8 DTM 1/10 TT-02 Touring Replica  [58682]

A Detailed Audi V8 DTM Tribute Built on the TT-02 by Tamiya 58682

The Tamiya 58682 kit celebrates the Audi V8 DTM that featured prominently in early 1990s touring car racing. The scale model echoes the original race car, noted for its 3.6-liter V8 producing 456hp and Frank Biela's multiple victories. It is designed for hobbyists who want a realistic replica with an accessible build.

TT-02 Chassis Strengths for Track and Practice

Known for its balanced behaviour and tuning room, the TT-02 chassis uses a layout with battery on the left and motor on the right to aid stability. Symmetrical suspension components keep parts simple and replacement-friendly, and the gearboxes are easy to maintain. Various wheelbase and ride-height settings and ten gear ratio choices let you adapt the car to different track types.

Scale Appearance and Assembly Highlights

The body is polycarbonate for durability and lightness, and the kit includes detailed stickers to reproduce Frank Biela's No. 45 livery plus masks for crisp painted windows. Two-piece mesh wheels with silver rims and gold spokes are paired with racing slick tyres, and the brake-disc style hubs and aerodynamic front bumper complete the race-inspired look.

The Tamiya 58682 Audi V8 DTM on the TT-02 is suited to model makers who want a period replica that is straightforward to assemble and tune for local circuits or display.
