Working through numerous world touring championships on circuits spread from Europe to Asia, within an expanded career mode, takes hours to see through. The even more realistic physics and refined damage system reward persistence and invite you to redo each race better than before. With Xbox Live multiplayer extending the rivalry, it holds its reputation as a hearty, demanding simulation.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

Collector interest
A Codemasters racer, DTM Race Driver 3 offers a wide range of motorsport disciplines and a fleshed-out career mode, released mainly in Europe under this name. Fairly common, its interest lies in this diversity of driving categories rather than scarcity. An affordable piece for fans of the era's versatile racing.
Is DTM Race Driver 3 still worth playing in 2026?
Released in 2006, Codemasters' third TOCA Race Driver dramatically widens the grid with over sixty disciplines ranging from GT and single seaters to rallycross and bangers. The handling model finds an interesting balance between arcade and simulation, the broadcast style presentation still convinces and the career mode is dense. The voice over has aged, some AI decisions are head scratching and the menu readability has not worn well. A solid recommendation today for fans of generalist motorsport games and for collectors of Codemasters' mid 2000s racing output on Xbox.
