Some cars hit every note perfectly. Others take a bolder swing. This 2011 Audi R8 Spyder does both. Finished in Brilliant Red over a two-tone Saddle Brown and Cognac interior, it’s a combination that will strike some as daring and others as mismatched. Either way, it stands out.

Quick Specs:

  • Engine: 5.2L FSI V10
  • Transmission: 6-speed gated manual
  • Drivetrain: Quattro all-wheel drive
  • Mileage: 21k
  • Options: Carbon Fiber Sigma package, Capristo exhaust, 19″ alloys
  • Interior: Audi Exclusive Saddle Brown & Cognac Nappa leather

The Audi R8 Spyder’s V10 paired to a gated manual makes it one of the most sought-after modern Audi configurations. This example adds carbon-fiber trim, LED lighting, heated seats, navigation, a custom JL Audio system, and even a Passport radar setup.

Originally purchased on Bring a Trailer in 2021, it now comes to market with service records, clean Carfax, Florida title, and manuals.

For collectors, the combination of low miles, manual gearbox, and V10 makes it an immediate contender. The red-over-brown spec may not be for everyone, but that’s exactly what gives this Spyder its character.
