The Tamiya 58701 Opel Calibra V6 Cliff captures the look of a period race car in a modern, buildable kit. Hobbyists who like authentic livery work and chassis tuning will find the TT-01E version rewarding to assemble and drive.
The Opel Calibra V6 Cliff became memorable in 1995 when Joest Racing and JJ. Lehto ran it in DTM competition. With a 2.5-liter V6 producing around 420 hp in full scale and its distinctive Cliff artwork, it remains a standout among touring cars of the era.
The TT-01E is noted for its accessible setup and resilience. Its shaft-driven 4WD gives predictable power delivery and the independent double wishbone suspension supports consistent contact on smooth or slightly rough surfaces. The main chassis components are durable ABS for long service life.
The shell is formed from polycarbonate to reflect the Calibra's aerodynamic profile while keeping weight low. Separate mirror parts, a rear wing and pre-molded silver ABS dish wheels with slick tyres are included, alongside decals and window masking stickers for accurate painting and finishing.
For tuners and painters, the Tamiya 58701 Opel Calibra V6 Cliff offers a faithful touring car experience on a chassis that is simple to service and upgrade.
