Historic DTM Replica: Tamiya 58433 Mercedes C-Class

The 2008 DTM season featured the No.6 Mercedes C-Class driven by Bernd Schneider, notable for pace at the Nurburgring and a podium in Spain. Tamiya 58433 offers a faithful 1/10 scale R/C assembly kit that models this period GT racer for builders and collectors.

Accurate Shell and Race Lines

The polycarbonate body in the Tamiya 58433 closely follows the contours and aerodynamic details of the real AMG DTM car. When neatly trimmed and painted the body presents authentic race-car visuals suitable for display and competition.

TT-01 Type-E Platform and Drive

This kit sits on the TT-01 Type-E chassis with a shaft-driven 4WD layout designed to deliver consistent handling and mechanical simplicity. The included racing slick tyres are aimed at tarmac and prepared circuit running.

Onboard Lighting and Expansion

Four LEDs are supplied, two white and two red, to add operational lights for low-light running. The kit contains the TLU-01 LED Light Unit; the optional TLU-02 unit can be added to control up to 32 LEDs for larger lighting schemes.

Tuning Options and Parts Support

Tamiya's range of optional parts allows builders to change motors, bearings and other components to tune balance and speed. This makes the 58433 a flexible platform for both casual and competitive use.
