The Tamiya 58701 Opel Calibra V6 Cliff pays homage to a DTM legend while offering hobbyists a current TT-01E platform to build and run. This model captures the spirit of the original race car in a kit format that appeals to both collectors and active drivers.
Originally campaigned in 1995 by Joest Racing with JJ. Lehto at the wheel, the Opel Calibra V6 Cliff was notable for its 2.5-liter V6 producing around 420 hp and its striking black Cliff liveries. That competitive history is what makes the scale replica so compelling to fans of period touring cars.
The TT-01E chassis is valued for simple assembly and dependable performance. A shaft-driven 4WD layout provides predictable handling, while independent double wishbone suspension soaks up uneven surfaces. The main chassis components are molded from tough ABS plastic to withstand regular running.
The polycarbonate shell recreates the Calibra's aerodynamic lines while keeping weight low. The kit adds separate side mirrors and a rear wing for accuracy, plus silver ABS dish wheels fitted with racing slick tyres. Decals and window masking stickers are supplied so you can paint and finish the model to match the Cliff livery or your own scheme.
The Tamiya 58701 Opel Calibra V6 Cliff on the TT-01E chassis is a flexible kit for nostalgic modelers and active club racers, combining iconic styling with a robust, serviceable platform.
