About the BMW M4 F82 DTM #36 M. Martin BMW Team RBM DTM 2016 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast BMW M4 F82 DTM reproduces the number 36 BMW Team RBM car Maxime Martin raced in the 2016 DTM season, a sealed one-piece body carrying tampo-printed sponsor graphics. This piece represents the second generation of BMW's modern DTM program, following the M3 DTM's retirement in 2014.
BMW retired the M3 DTM after the 2013 season and replaced it with a coupe built on the F82 M4, a switch that reflected a broader shift toward two-door bodies across the DTM grid. By 2016, Maxime Martin carried the new car's colors for BMW Team RBM.
The M4 Takes Over BMW's DTM Program
Why BMW Moved From the M3 to the M4 in DTM
The switch from M3 to M4 nomenclature on BMW's road cars carried straight through to the racetrack, and the F82-based DTM car that replaced the earlier M3 DTM in 2014 brought a fresh aerodynamic package built around the coupe's updated proportions. Two seasons into that new car's life, the 2016 season represented a maturing platform rather than a debut, with teams having had time to refine setup and bodywork details.
Maxime Martin and BMW Team RBM in 2016
Martin's seat with BMW Team RBM placed him among the manufacturer's stable of factory-supported drivers during a season when BMW fielded multiple squads across its M4 DTM lineup. Each team ran distinct sponsor graphics on a shared chassis, which is why the specific number 36 livery, rather than the car in general, is what a collector is really choosing when picking this piece over a sister car.
A Sealed Racing Shell Built for Shelf Inspection
Tampo Graphics Over Continuous Panel Lines
This model is a sealed one-piece casting, and that construction choice keeps the RBM sponsor artwork unbroken across doors, fenders, and roof rather than interrupted by a hinge line. The tampo printing sits flat against the body with none of the raised edge that lower-tier decals sometimes leave, which is the detail worth checking first on any liveried racing subject.
Diecast Construction at 1:43 Racing Scale
Cast in zinc alloy, the model holds its weight and shape well, with the M4 DTM's aggressive front splitter and rear wing molded to hold crisp edges despite the small scale. Wheel arches carry the flared, race-widened proportions that separate this silhouette from the road-going M4, giving the piece genuine visual presence next to less aerodynamic touring subjects.
Pairing Two Generations of BMW's DTM Coupe
Set beside an M3 DTM piece from BMW's 2012 or 2013 seasons, this M4 makes the platform transition visible on a single shelf, from the earlier coupe's shape to the sharper aerodynamics that followed. For a collector tracking BMW's factory DTM story chronologically, that pairing tells a more complete story than either car alone.
