About the Opel Calibra V6 #2 K. Rosberg DTM 1995 UT Models 1:18

TL;DR: UT Models' 1:18 diecast Opel Calibra V6 reproduces the #2 Team Rosberg car from the 1995 DTM season, a period when Opel fielded heavily developed, four-wheel-drive touring cars against Mercedes and Alfa Romeo. Diecast construction captures the Calibra's widened, race-prepared bodywork.

The mid-1990s DTM cars barely resembled their road-going namesakes underneath, and the Calibra's flared, aggressive race bodywork shows that transformation clearly.

Diecast Detail on a Heavily Widened Touring Car

DTM regulations of this era allowed dramatic bodywork modification over the road car, and the Calibra's flared arches and aggressive front splitter reflect that, giving a diecast model far more sculpted surfacing to reproduce than a standard road-going Calibra would need. UT Models has built solid credibility with period DTM liveries, and on this car the Team Rosberg sponsor branding and #2 numbering should be applied with the precision that separates a genuine race-livery replica from a road-car diecast wearing decals. Expect opening features and diecast weight typical of the format at mainstream pricing.

Team Rosberg's Place in DTM's Golden Era

The mid-1990s DTM, and its later international successor series, fielded some of the most technically advanced touring cars ever built, with manufacturer-backed teams spending heavily to compete. Team Rosberg ran Opel's Calibra effort during this period, part of a field that also included Mercedes and Alfa Romeo factory teams in what many enthusiasts still regard as the category's competitive peak.

A Golden-Era Piece for a DTM Collection

For collectors focused on 1990s German touring car racing, this Calibra V6 captures a genuinely significant era of manufacturer-backed competition, a strong addition alongside period Mercedes and Alfa Romeo DTM liveries.
