Default Hey RS4 Cab owners...

Toying around w/ the idea of getting a cab rather than a sedan.

How is the car w/ the top up? Is it noisy, cowl shake.

Thanks!

Default One of the quietest drop tops I have had with the top up. Easy to have normal conversation

Default Agreed with others, very quiet...

Default Read somewhere that it is within a couple of decibels of the sedan - so very quiet.

We can cruise at 80 with the top up and not have to raise our voices at all.

Yes, there is a bit of cowl shake, but not unreasonable IMHO.

If you're looking for one I've got 3 up for grabs.

Very quiet with top, Also just finished a full winter season and never felt like I was driving a Cab. Triple lined keeps it well insulated from cold and noise. Have owned a number of converts and find the Audi much better than any of them in terms of cowl shake
