	Cabriolet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A cabriolet was a light, two-wheeled horse-drawn carriage with a folding 'calash' top, seating two persons behind the driver's box.
		A cabriolet (or cabrio) is a car body style that has a removable or retracting roof and rear window, known in America more commonly as "convertible".
		Owing to the issue of body flex, cabriolets almost always have only two doors.

	Model A Ford Cabriolet Club
		The Cabriolet was produced in 1929, 1930, and 1931 using the body designations 68A, 68B, and 68C.
		The Cabriolet is a convertible with glass side windows, unlike the canvas side curtains found on many other roadster models.
		The Cabriolet club was founded in 1980 and currently has approximately 400 members who are located primarily in the United States of America.

	WORLD PREMIERE OF VOLKSWAGEN'S CABRIOLET-COUPÉ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		This automobile looks wider than any other cabriolet in the A or B segment - and it is. Because of its extreme width of 1.81 metres (1.43 m high / 4.41 m long), the concept C rests as sturdily upon its wheels as would a beefy, high-calibre sports car.
		Compact-type cabriolets can tend to look thin and disproportionately high (especially when the roof is up), given the dimensions taken from the mass-series derivates on which they are modelled.
		While the larger-sized cabriolets don't have this figure problem, they also do not have much appeal if you like an athletic, compact look and a coupé-like style when the roof is up.

	IAA 2001: The New Audi A4 Cabriolet
		The Audi A4 Cabriolet is a vehicle whose temperament and unique qualities are obvious at first glance: the flat front end, the subtle wedge shape and the powerfully contoured tail with visible tailpipes are clear indications of the sporting prowess that it has inherited from its designers.
		The double radiator grille with chrome surround and the flat headlights with three-tube design behind a clear-glass cover indicate that the Cabriolet is a member of the A4 model family.
		In this way the interior of the Cabriolet is also kept deliberately distinct from that of the other A4 models, consequently demonstrating its exclusiveness.

		Not only does the 404 cabriolet seat 4 (2 adults and 2 small children) but this car can still be found in France in significant numbers and parts are still 'reasonably' available.
		The production run during this period was 10389 cabriolets (compared to over 2.5 million sedans) of which 7375 have an injection motor.
		The 404 cabriolet as well as the coupé and the sedan were designed by Pinin Farina.

		Taking styling features from the 911 Turbo Coupe, the Cabriolet incorporates the Coupe's three large front air intake cooling scoops, intercooler air intakes in the rear side panels, and a rear spoiler that deploys at 75 mph (120 km/h) and retracts at 55 mph (80 km/h).
		As found on all current Porsche 911 Cabriolets, the Turbo Cabriolet is equipped with a power convertible top that raises or lowers in just 20 seconds.
		To maintain body stiffness, the 911 Turbo Cabriolet's structure is enhanced with reinforced side-sills featuring body panels and elements doubled in thickness, additional junction plates, and shaft reinforcements behind the B pillar.

	The Australian: Mini Cooper S Cabriolet [June 15, 2005] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		CABRIOLETS carved from a conventional hatchback are becoming a more common sight in Australian cities as an increasing number of car brands turn to the tomahawk and enter this market niche.
		Valued as much for their cost-effectiveness as their chic, these convertibles are also a means for their manufacturers to achieve some crucial extra mileage – and revenue – from one or more of their mainstream car lines.
		Keeping the traction control switched on, and enthusiasm in check, brings it all back into line – and at all times the handling is sweet, the braking forceful and the steering sharp, communicative and free from unwanted kickback in rough corners.

	NEW BEETLE CABRIOLET REFLECTS THE MOST WELL-KNOWN DESIGN IN THE WORLD
		The New Beetle Cabriolet additionally reflects, in a refreshingly new and progressive manner, the positive radiance of the historic Beetle Cabriolet, which wrote history as the first status-neutral Volkswagen.
		The Beetle Cabriolet was phased-out in 1980 after more than 330,000 vehicles had been sold; by this time, it had long since become the status-neutral lifestyle vehicle for generations of Cabriolet drivers.
		Special exterior paints developed specifically for the New Beetle Cabriolet add a dash of colour to everyday life: aquarius blue, mellow yellow and harvest moon, to name just a few; their very names make it clear that emphasis is placed on this vehicle's positive and pleasant radiance.

		A closer look, however, reveals that this stylish, sporty body is indeed subtly different in its basic form and proportions from the remaining Audi A4 Cabriolets: the bumper has large air inlets, the xenon headlights have a titanium-coloured surround behind the glass and the outside mirror housings have been given an aluminium finish.
		The Audi S4 Cabriolet sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in only 5.9 seconds, and reaches a top speed of 250 km/h, at which point the governor cuts in smoothly.
		Standard equipment on the Audi S4 Cabriolet is an electro-hydraulic soft top, which closes at the touch of a button in under 30 seconds.

	CanadianDriver: Used Car Review - Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet 1989-93
		The Cabriolet has a surprisingly roomy interior and trunk considering its compact outer dimensions and the space needed for the folded soft-top.
		The original Cabriolet was based on the Rabbit (first generation Golf) but uses the same running gear as the (second generation) VW Golf.
		And the '90 Cabriolet was recalled for a light switch that didn't meet the daytime running light standard.

	Audi A4 Cabriolet - Business Standard Motoring (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Based on the Audi 80, the original Cabriolet from the Ingolstadt-based car maker was quite successful.
		The Cabriolet also incorporates a whole lot of safety features, including an active roll-over protection system – which includes two roll-over bars behind the rear passengers that are triggered in milliseconds, and an extremely rigid windscreen frame and reinforced A-pillar combination.
		Also, this cabriolet is the first convertible to feature a multitronic continuously variable automatic transmission, which combines the sportiness of a manual tranny with the convenience of an automatic.

		You see, despite the findings, the Germans have done a typically thorough job on the Cabriolet, giving it class-leading structural stiffness in a bid to put the driving experience on a par with the BMW 3-series Convertible.
		Owners of the previous Cabriolet (72,000 of which were sold worldwide between 1991 and 2000) will probably notice the quantum leap in refinement and interior aesthetics.
		The nose-job gives the Cabriolet a distinctly TT-esque look and the overall effect is that of a stylish drop-top coupe rather than a chopped-down saloon.

	Cabriolet completes line - The Washington Times: Auto Weekend - July 16, 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		By offering a class-leading combination of a powerful 4.2-liter V-8 engine that develops 340 horsepower and 302 foot-pounds of torque with quattro permanent all-wheel drive, the only thing remaining was to introduce a convertible that is one of the most emotionally satisfying forms of automotive transport.
		This permits the antenna to function fully without having to be placed on the exterior of the deck lid or embedded in a window glass and ensures that the S4 Cabriolet's design is left intact.
		The new Audi S4 Cabriolet satisfies with the performance of a sports car and the convenience of a convertible with usable back seat and full amenities.

		A heated rear window and the elimination of the risk of ageing or deterioration of the hood offset the usual disadvantages of cabriolets.
		In the cabriolet position, the lines of the boot prolong the shape of the cabin and give the vehicle design an overall balance.
		The wind noise that can be heard in a conventional cabriolet is noticeably reduced, bringing the sound level closer to that of a saloon.

	The Car Connection - Preview: 2005 Porsche 911 Cabriolet - Is it finally the equal of the coupe?
		In terms of style, there was no need to mess with the classic shape, but subtle changes brought back round headlamps to replace the odd-shaped units of the previous model and a widening of the body over the rear wheels, making the 911's haunches slightly more pronounced and certainly sexier.
		However, it's unlikely that anyone would want to drive the cabriolet to its maximum speed with the top down - not when you consider that the maximum for the S is 182 mph.
		On the road, the Cabriolet is nothing but a Porsche, with everything one has come to expect from the marque.

	Karmann to produce Audi A4 Cabriolet
		The new Audi A4 Cabriolet, which will be launched this April, is being manufactured at what is to all intents and purposes a new plant: virtually all that remains of the production halls at the Rheine plant are the walls.
		These struts in particular are not welded by robots, but manually." For instance, the A4 Cabriolet has in addition high-strength reinforcing tubes in the A-post, sills with an optimised thickness and cross-section, a cross reinforcement under the rear seat bench, a double rear wall and special impact absorbers in the doors.
		And this will be necessary: although not one example of the new Audi Cabriolet has been on display in dealers' showrooms, over 2000 orders have already been received for the "emotional spearhead" of the Audi model series.

	AutoWeb - New Audi S4 Cabriolet Makes its National Debut
		Audi Australia’s Managing Director, Mr Joerg Hofmann, says that although the S4 Cabriolet is a niche model for Australia, it is nonetheless an important addition to the range.
		The Audi S4 Cabriolet takes this concept one step further, adding supreme ‘S’ model performance to the beautifully-designed vehicle body, plus feel-good factors such as its throaty engine note, quattro all-wheel drive and sports-derived steering wheel paddles for faster gear changes and responsiveness,” Mr Hofmann said.
		The new Audi S4 Cabriolet expresses its supremacy by adopting a deliberately restrained appearance – a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

	Audi Cabriolet
		The 90-based Cabriolet has enjoyed some success in Europe since its introduction in the summer of 1991, but it was available only with Audi's 2.3-liter five-cylinder engine with 133 bhp.
		Several tuners were quick to recognize the car as a born classic that needed bigger lungs, and companies like Abt in Germany punched out the factory 2.3, added bigger tires and wheels, and cloaked the panels with more aggressive aerodynamics (see european car 9192).
		A11 American-spec Cabriolets will be powered by the VG, which boasts increases in horsepower of 32 percent and torque of 31 percent over the aging five.

		This is a continued theme with the cabriolet, which prompts comparisons with the A4 sedan but never wanders far from conventional wisdom or practice.
		Heavier, roofless and its suspension lowered 20mm, the cabriolet is a different animal from the able A4 sedan.

		At first glance, the sports-car faithful will see the automatic Tiptronic transmission in a 911 Turbo cabriolet as an affront to their belief in the sanctity of the clutch pedal.
		Well, consider this one to be the reformer sports car, unwilling to accept the old doctrine that a fluid-coupling torque converter is a sinful device and three pedals are the only way to nirvana.
		Although we have never tested a 911 Turbo cabriolet with a manual transmission, it would likely not be much quicker than the automatic version.

		The major drawback to practical, everyday use of the Cabriolet appears to be its back seat, or near lack of one.

		The 1988-1989 versions are considered to be the pinnacle of VW Cabriolet design as they have the new integrated "Euro" bumpers and ground effects, 4-headlight grills and hydraulic valves but retain the simpler mechanical CIS fuel-injection system.
		In mid-1984 the Cabriolet, Jetta I and Scirocco II fuel tanks were enlarged to 13.7 gallons, an in-tank fuel pump was added and the spare tire changed to a space-saver configuration.
