To celebrate its Championship 2013 DTM Series, won by the driver Mike Rockenfeller, Audi has announced a limited 300 unit production DTM Champion Edition of the A5.

Last year, BMW did the same with its M3 DTM Champion model, having won with Quebec driver Bruno Spengler.

Although quite similar to the standard model, this variant of the Audi A5 is available in only three exterior colors: Glacier White, Daytona Grey and Misano Red.

Modifications to note:
