Audi of America, Inc. the distributor of high quality Audi TT parts has announced recently the pricing of the most anticipated RS4 Cabriolet model which will have a tag price of $81,900. The destination charge will cost $775 and is not included in the base price. The gas-guzzler tax will still have to be determined prior to the Cabrio’s arrival at US showrooms in fall of 2007.

The RS 4 will also share the same powerful 4.2 V8 FSI engine that is found in the RS 4 sedan. The powerplant produces 420 hp at 7,800 rpm and 317 ft-lbs of torque at 5,500 rpm. And just like the sedan, the Cabrio will only be offered with a six-speed manual transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive that features the asymmetrical dynamic torque split.
