Default RS4 steering wheel? What is this? Euro wheel?

I can't tell if this is a Euro Wheel or an RS6 wheel. Does anybody know why it's on an RS4?

It looks like a TTRS wheel. I have one on my car and love it.

US RS4s didn't come with the standard Euro RS4 steering wheel, so many people have bought a TTS or TTRS wheel as it maintains the button functions for the phone etc. but still has the look of the original RS4 wheel.

This is the TTRS wheel on my car- I think the wheel in the picture is a European RS4 wheel perhaps. Alex at Europrice would know for sure.

The wheel at the top is definitely not a Euro RS4 wheel. The original RS4 wheel looks like this:

Anyone have any suggestions on where to find the TTRS wheel posted above?

I'm new to the Audi/RS4 scene so I am still unsure where to go for the different aftermarket options.

Alex@europrice.com is the man when it comes to those things. I was lucky to find one on fleebay w/ airbag for $950 but they are very, very rare. New ones cost more. The TTS wheel is cheaper but isn't as thick or sculpted and doesn't have the matching perforating in the leather. Prior to the TTRS, I had a Euro wheel. Love the looks but couldn't do without the radio buttons so switched to the TTRS. It's a keeper!

I have a "new" 2007 RS4 and I am looking for a "flat bottom" version as you have in this picture. I also have an R8 and a CLK63 Black Series that I have had custom steering wheels done for me by John Borshelt of MaCarbon...MAcarbon Steering Wheel Configurator
