Audi has unveiled the 2013 RS5 Cabrio, a model which will have it's public debut on 2012 Paris Motor Show.
The new model features a lightweight soft top that can be opened in 15 seconds while driving at speeds up to 50 km/h (31 mph). Unfortunately, when down, the top affects the storage space by taking 2.12 cubic feet of the trunk.
It also has LED-infused headlights, 19-inch forged aluminum wheels and matte aluminum trim.
The new Audi has the same 450 horsepower 4.2 liter V8 as the coupe and scoots to 100 kmh (62 mph) in 4.9 seconds. The good news is that upon request, Audi can increase the threshold to 280 km/h (174 mph).
