Default I saw one in Sacramento at the Niello Audi R8 Launch...

... I actually really liked it. Back seat is kinda useless, as it is in most cabs, but the two door looked slick. Did not look like a hack job. If it was lowered wiht some Ohlins (as all RS4's should be IMHO) I think it would look amazing. With the top down, there is a back seat cover, but the headrest stick out. Yank the rear headrests. I'm not a cab guy, but for those that like Audi's and Cabs, you can't beat it.

It looses something or it looks like an S4 cab with the top up?

Does the back seat have enough room for two kids in car seats?

should be identical to S4 cab or "regular A4" cab for backseat room.

Default PeterH summed it up below... in my RS4 with two cars seats, being 6'2"...

I get my seat kicked alot. I try to reason with them, but they still kick... too much Mountian Dew perhaps? Anyhow, It looks like the cab backseat is more upright than the sedan.

To the normal eye every A4 S4 RS4 looks alike.

It just doesn't look as menacing with the top up.

Default 2nd- especially on the road. Saw one at the Audi Forum in Berlin, and then 2-3 in Italy last week.

There's something about the lines and continuity of the sedan vs. the break-up of the cab.
