Ford Mustang 5.0 #23 1994 DTM in 1:18 scale
This is the Ford Mustang 5.0 #23 1994 DTM in 1:18 scale by WERK83.
The Ford Mustang 5.0 #23 made a rare and unique appearance in the 1994 DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft), marking one of the few instances of an American muscle car competing in the highly competitive German touring car series. Unlike its European counterparts, which were typically more refined and technologically advanced, the Mustang 5.0 brought raw V8 power to the grid, offering a stark contrast in racing philosophy. While it struggled to match the pace of the dominant Mercedes, Alfa Romeo, and Opel entries, its participation added an exciting dynamic to the series. The 1994 DTM season was known for intense manufacturer battles and advanced aerodynamics, making the Mustang’s presence a fascinating underdog story. Although it did not achieve major success, its entry into DTM remains a unique chapter in the series' history, symbolizing an ambitious attempt to introduce American muscle into one of the most technologically advanced touring car championships of its time.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
