Audi's racy new A5 coupe doesn't disappoint when it comes to striking style- but a custom-painted model is set for display at the New York Auto Show from today onwards.

The custom paint application comes courtesy of New York City based artist Hunt Slonem, and the custom A5 will be auctioned off later this year to benefit Denise Rich's G&P Foundation for Cancer Research. The foundation was created to encourage the development of more effective therapies for patients suffering with leukemia, lymphoma and related cancers.Before being auctioned off, the colorful A5 will be toured around the country to support other non-profit organizations that Audi supports."Audi is committed to providing support to well deserving organizations making a difference in people's lives everyday," said Johan de Nysschen, executive VP at Audi of America. "We are honored to work with Denise Rich and the G&P Foundation for Cancer Research, and know that our support will help with their mission to develop new therapies for treating cancer. We thank Hunt Slonem for contributing his artistic talents to create a distinctive version of the A5 that will be sold for a very worthwhile cause."
