According to the project's exterior designer Jurgen Loffler, the Audi A1 - earmarked for release next month ahead of its anticipated Geneva Motor Show debut - will be available in "a variety of colors, regardless of the body color of the car." Now that's taking the fight to the Mini, which can be ordered with a roof painted white, black, or the same color as the body, not to mention the host of roof graphics the Cooper available.
