The Roadster was a limited-production special edition, which had,
in addition to its completely demountable convertible top, numerous
equipment upgrades. The interior was in black, the first time that color
was used, with striking accents in a faux-snakeskin pattern, highlighted
by bright red piping throughout. The interior side panels featured twin
polished aluminum trim strips. The leather belt was in white, and the
shift lever had a white knob. The dash panel layout followed the new
1957 specification, with a cream ashtray in place of the clock and
a rearranged switchgear incorporating a new light switch. The radio
opening had special white speaker cloth under its chrome wire mesh
grille. The roadster body featured fender lamps and portholes, as well
as new curved-arm Kontakt mirrors exclusive to this model (and later to
the Tiger), which were seen on the headlight pods. new slotted hubcaps
