Default Cancelled my order for the 08 Cabriolet

Just couldn't come to terms with the looks of it. I much prefer the sedan.

I'm kickin around the idea of an S8.

I know, completely different ride.

I'm so confused.

Default yeah. I never liked the look of audi cabs in general... must be the long front overhang...

it just looks awkward and to my eyes, fugly.

I'd rock an RS4 sedan while supplies last if I were you. The S8 is sweet but it's too much of luxo-boat unless that's what you're looking for.

Ever consider an M6 vert or a CLK63 cabrio? In my opinion, those are two drop-top designs that actually work and both will let you enjoy the sweet sounds of an awesome engine with the top down like the RS4 cab.

Default I have the BMW 645 Cab. Awesome car - 90% of the M6 believe it or not.

Wouldn't want to think about spending 50K+ to get that last 10%.

Default I believe it except that the 325hp 4.4L bmw engine sounds no where near as insane as the M6's V10

especially with the top down in the M6 verts' case. I recently got rid of my E60 M5 and no way in hell a 545i or even a 550i was 90% of that car. That V10 was bananas at the top end.

It's 90% of the M6, the other half is 645 (Yogi Berra...)
