Right from the exterior design, the Audi R8 V10 Decennium makes its character abundantly clear. The special model coupé comes with a striking paint job in Daytona Gray matte (there are also options for a pear effect Daytona Gray, and metallic versions of Suzuka Gray, Floret Silver, Mythos Black, Ascari Blue, and Kemora Gray), which we think goes nicely with the milled 20-inch wheels and the bronzed intake manifold of the sportscar’s 5.2 FSI engine. In contrast, the front spoiler, the side sills and the diffuser are painted in gloss black, supplemented by black Audi rings and badges on the exterior, while the side blades and the exterior mirror housings are made from gloss carbon fiber.
The interior of the Audi R8 V10 Decennium is also finished entirely in black, with the inlays in gloss carbon fiber adding highlights. The quilted rhombus pattern stitching on the sport seats is finished in gloss black; the contrasting stitching in a gloss copper tone. The selector lever and the steering wheel – with Alcantara rim and black 12 o’clock marking – feature copper-colored stitching, as do the center armrest, the door armrest and the door rail.
