For all those that can afford an Audi A5 and have been saving to buy the convertible version we’ve told you about exactly one year ago, we have news. It’s going to be available in 2009 and manufactured in Neckarsulm, a city in northern Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. We are pretty confident that it will use the 3.2-liter FSI V6 engine but rumors say that S5 convertible with a 354-hp V8 engine should be available which is going to be dead fast.
Unlike BMW’s convertibles, Audi is going to use an electric soft-tops to save weight and cost.
We’re expecting it to hit the floors in January 2009 at the Detroit Auto Show.

It is almost impossible to buy one…. Audi has been unable to give me any idea on when the S5 convertible will be available in South Africa. They can not give any idea on cost or if there will be a wait list for this car….

I take delivery of my A5 Convertible next week, maybe you are chatting to the wrong sales person. Albeit that i wont know my final cost till i receive an invoice on Tuesday, it is in Customs in Cape Town, can’t wait… I have only ever dealt with David @ Audi Centre at the V & A Waterfront
021 4092900. Try him, your wait may not be as long.
