A WIN this year in the German equivalent of Australia’s Supercars championship has given BMW something to celebrate – and we’re getting the gift.
The carmaker has announced it will bring 10 BMW M4 DTM Champion Editions Down Under to celebrate the 2016 title win, sealed after driver Marco Wittman took this year’s crown for the German luxury brand.
The Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, or DTM, is to German manufacturers what the Supercar championship is to Holden and Ford.

Wittman made his debut in DTM in 2013, won the championship in 2014, and doubled-down this year. BMW says the M4 DTM Championship Edition was built to commemorate his significant talent and achievements
Priced from $295,000, the cars will wear a commemorative plaque and carry over much of the technology from the BMW M4 GTS.

“On the back of the sold-out M4 GTS, the M4 DTM Champion Edition offers similar racetrack-inspired performance with further exclusivity, and is a fitting tribute to Marco’s achievements.”
Power boosts to 368kW and 600Nm, a 51kW and 50Nm gain over the ‘standard’ M4.

To really drive home its motorsport heritage, the DTM Champion Edition also has a six-point harness and a fire extinguisher.
