Everything About The Car Is The Same As The Coupe It Just Lacks a Roof.
Horsepower is 540 from the naturally aspirated V10 and Audi claims that it weighs 3,554 lbs (1612kg) dry. Audi says that?s 97 lbs (44 kg) heavier than the coupe.

I really like this design, and like the fact it has a mini sideblade. we tried a faux blade on ours and it just didn't look right

Love the new front end. Rear doesn't quite do it for me. Still freaking awesome, though.

no stick, no sale. I'll take a v8 vantage roadster with a real manual instead.

Hate the new look, will go for the 1st version for sure, destroyed the finesse of the original one, I guess not surprised with Audi, the same job as per the TT, 1st one a master work of art, every model after was a race to make the TT look like the A4.

the other thing that makes me happy is that with this redesign, I feel our 2012 still looks relevant...especially with the mesh grille we did. the v10 is a fun experience in these cars....glad its still there

Front end is fugly and rear is far too busy. But I'd hit it.

What? Just cut the roof off. Lazy fucking design. Absolutely horrible. To those who said it was the best looking roadster theyve ever seen, do you have amnesia?
