Look for the 560-horsepower 2011 Audi R8 GT to be one of the showstoppers at the 2010 Worthersee Tour here, which kicks off on Wednesday. The R8 GT, which has the Porsche 911 GT3 in the crosshairs, makes its first public appearance at the annual Worthersee event.

The limited-edition version of the R8 was formally unveiled at an exclusive gala in Monte Carlo on May 1. Audi is also showing off a stable of seven special A1 models at the Worthersee Tour, including a "Hot Rod" version with a Daytona Gray paint job and an "extremely low ride height," the automaker said in a statement.

While the R8 GT — decked out in orange exterior paint — is a no-brainer for Audi's Worthersee plans, the automaker noted that "the A1 fits in with the GTI meet because customization has always been a central topic for the Audi fans at the Worthersee."

The A1s have been tweaked with add-on parts, special paint finishes and adhesive films for this appearance, Audi said.

Look for the A1 "Fashion" model in Aubergine, as well as the A1 "Follow Me" in Citrus Yellow with a black checkerboard pattern that takes its inspiration from airport ground control vehicles, said Audi.
