TAMIYA RC 1/10 BMW 318I STW (TT-01E)

Tamiya RC 1/10 BMW 318i STW (TT-01E) 4WD Touring Car Assembly Kit

Recreate one of BMW's iconic 1990s Super Touring racers with the Tamiya RC 1/10 BMW 318i STW (TT-01E). This limited-production re-release depicts the E36-generation BMW 318i as raced in the Super Touring Car Cup, combining its distinctive racing body and updated markings with Tamiya's easy-to-build TT-01 Type-E 4WD chassis.

Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring assembly; it ships as a build-it-yourself kit and does not arrive pre-built or ready to run.

The low-mounted motor and battery help keep the chassis balanced, while the fibreglass-reinforced nylon upper deck and gear covers improve rigidity. Four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension, front and rear gear differentials and a three-piece steering tie-rod deliver stable on-road handling, and the white mesh wheels with racing slick tyres complete the classic touring-car appearance.
