Are these limited edition kits?

I have just found a guy on eBay Germany selling some unusual Tamiya kits. They are unusual because they are variations of cars Tamiya has made but with new liveries, and they do not appear on any lists of all Tamiyas 1/24 scale cars. Anyone know what they are?

These are pretty rare. They are German market only reboxes of the standard and excellent DTM cars. The German Tamiya distributor was behind these. Trev.
