If you like your Audis looking to be unique, a visit to the Audi Forum in Neckarsulm might be time well spent.
This Arablau Matt R8 Spyder is more than just the wearer of an exclusive color scheme. It’s also got 10-spoke Y-design alloys, carbon fiber mirrors and side blades, Performance leather steering wheel, plus full leather trim interior with Alabaster White seats, carbon fiber inserts and other body-colored elements.
Even though Audi will let you get really creative in terms of what your very own model can look like both inside and out, the R8 V10 Spyder is not just about looks.
It might not be the top Plus version, but the 540 PS churned out by the 5.2-liter V10 is still a mighty number. Add the quick 7-speed S tronic dual-clutch gearbox and, in a straight line, it’ll do 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.6 seconds, with a top speed of 317 km/h (197 mph), just 3 km/h (2 mph) lower than that of the Coupe version.
As for specs, if you want to get the most out of your R8, odds are you’ll be highly appreciative of its newly designed quattro system with an electro-hydraulically activated multi-plate clutch, its fully digital virtual cockpit, the premium Bang & Olufsen sound system and of course its excellent iOS & Android connectivity features.
