Default Ive got to admit im pretty excited to be back....RS5 cabrio

Hey guys,

new to this forum, but back in the seat of my much loved german friend....

I just finalised purchase on a MY14 RS5 update Cabrio…. and saying i'm excited is an understatement.

After months of looking at so many different germans, I found the one... I was actually going to go for the M4 that I drove an hour before, but after I got into this it was love at first drive.

The M4 was insanely quick, I loved the turbo spooling and the jolt, but the RS5 was totally different, just so smooth and strong, it was felt like a true lumpy V8 one of the last of the german naturally aspirated

muscle cars and with the roof down...… damn.

I've always loved the W205 c63 and the RS5's NA V8. The RS5 just held its age so much better though.

I need some help with identifying the options and some more info on this specific car.

I have the printout of the sheet from audi including the options list.

Is this the right section of the site to ask ?

If it is I will add the options list and more info.



Much appreciated

Options list as per readout -

DSP2 Dynamic spt pkg2
1N8 Dynamic steering
7Y1 Audi Side assist
9VK Bang & Olufsen sound

The car has the black exhaust tips, changing modes opens valve, tightens suspension.
It seems to have the 20" wheels on it.
Rear black or carbon spoiler small.
I am unsure of the braking package looking at it seemed to have front 4 pots and rear 2 pots.

Forgive me as I haven't picked It up till next week...

HELP.

That V8 is worth of engine-envy.
Loved the little brother V8 in my departed S5.
Shame the manny tranny was never available in the RS version.
Enjoy!

Ive had a manual prior for years, tbh I am quite sick of it, IMO a true paddle shifted auto is so much more fun and easy in day to day driving not to mention faster, when I test drove this the blips and pop offs from downshifting and the overall smoothness and speed of the auto was amazing.
