Description
The Tamiya TT-02 Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16 EVO II is a classic-looking racer that brings the golden age of touring cars to your driveway. This 1/10 scale kit recreates the famous car from the 1991 DTM series, known for its big rear wing and wide wheel arches. The body is made from tough polycarbonate and comes with separate plastic parts for the grille, emblem, and mirrors to make it look just like the real race car. It is a great choice for anyone who loves the look of old-school German muscle cars.
Under the body is the TT-02 chassis, which is famous for being a tough platform that is easy to work on. It uses a shaft-driven 4WD system, meaning all four wheels drive the car, giving you great control on flat surfaces. The battery and motor are placed to keep the car balanced, and the independent suspension helps smooth out bumps. It comes with a 540 sized motor that has plenty of zip for racing friends or just having fun in a parking lot.
This version comes with a factory painted bodyshell so you can focus on the build.
