The Tamiya 58611 Honda City Turbo brings back the spirit of the early 80s with faithful styling and practical modern upgrades. Tracing its roots to the original 1983 "Willy's Wheeler", this version sits on a strengthened WR-02 chassis that balances vintage looks with everyday hobby durability.
The WR-02 platform is prized for its nimble feel and tough build. With a 185mm wheelbase and a rear 2WD layout driven by a centrally mounted motor, the chassis delivers confident traction and predictable control. Fully independent double wishbone suspension soaks up rough surfaces for smoother runs.
The bodywork captures the original Honda City Turbo silhouette and includes a playful driver figure to complete the retro presentation. Made from resilient ABS, the shell stays lightweight while handling the knocks and scrapes that come with off-road play.
The pre-assembled gearbox and motor unit make building straightforward, shortening bench time before your first run. The supplied 540-brushed motor provides dependable torque and rear tyre width adds stability across mixed surfaces. The direct servo steering gives precise input for those refining their driving setup.
The Tamiya 58611 suits builders who want retro charm with an approachable driving platform. Its robust WR-02 underpinnings and nostalgic body make it great for both new hobbyists and collectors who enjoy weekend trail sessions.
