If the matte blue R8 Spyder we showed you yesterday is just too much Audi for you, there is something just as exclusive but a lot less extravagant you can choose. Meet what is quite possibly the world’s only Nardo Grey Audi TT RS Roadster featuring unique design elements inside and out.

Available at Audi Forum Ingolstadt, the Nardo Grey Audi TT RS Roadster is like a little boy strolling along in daddy’s shoes. The color is borrowed from the most exclusive versions of the big, badass RS6, but it does suit the TT rather well, especially when complemented with those 7-spoke wheels and the RS sport kit as well as the carbon mirrors and sport tailpipes.

The  Nardo Grey Audi TT RS Roadster also features a unique interior with Palomino Brown leather upholstery, black leather and Alcantara inserts, and granite grey trim pieces. It is the ideal place to sit and enjoy the 400 horsepower output of the car’s five-cylinder turbo engine which takes it from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds and on to a top speed of 280 km/h.

So there you go. If you can’t afford an R8, a nicely-specced TT RS is the next best thing. We reckon because of its size and lower weight, the little TT is more of a hoot to drive than the big and rather serious R8.
