The Tamiya 58520 Mini JCW Coupe is not just another RC car; it's a tribute to the spirited MINI JCW Coupe that competed in the SP 3T class at the 39th ADAC Zurich 24 Hours of Nurburgring in 2011. This model captures the essence of the real-world racer with its sleek design and performance-oriented features.
Based on the two-seater MINI Coupe, this RC model mirrors the race-spec modifications of its real-life counterpart. From the sharper windshield angle to the adjustable suspension and rear wing, every detail is crafted to reflect the original's competitive spirit. The polycarbonate body and separately-molded ABS side mirrors add to the authenticity, making it a must-have for collectors and racers alike.
The Tamiya 58520 is built on the renowned M-05 chassis, known for its ease of assembly and dynamic handling. With a front-wheel-drive layout and a long wheelbase of 239mm, it offers stability and agility on the track. The independent double wishbone suspension system, coupled with oil-filled dampers, ensures smooth handling across various surfaces.
This kit comes with a set of matte-finished gold-plated 8-spoke wheels, exclusive to the initial 2012 release. A gear differential and a 540 motor are included, though you'll need to provide your own electronic speed controller. The vinyl sticker sheet and masking seals for windows allow for a personalized finish, adding to the model's appeal.
The Tamiya 58520 Mini JCW Coupe is perfect for RC enthusiasts who appreciate racing history and precise engineering. Its blend of realistic design and performance makes it suitable for both casual builders and competitive racers.
