This summer’s 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil has a number of automakers ruffling up their feathers to show their support of national football teams. In Japan, Audi announced the upcoming release of a truly limited production series named “Audi x Samurai Blue 11 Limited Edition” dedicated to the country’s soccer team.
Only one example of each of the S3 Sportback, S4 Sedan and Avant, S5 Coupe, Sportback and Cabriolet, S6 Sedan and Avant, S7 Sportback, TTS Coupe and SQ5 SUV Samurai Blue 11 editions will be built, with orders to be accepted from July on a first come, first served basis.
All 11 cars are finished in Estoril Blue, which is reminiscent of the Japanese national football team’s color, with their interiors dressed in Knight Blue leather with Crimson Red stitching.
