Speculation is running rampant as to which cars are going to be making an appearance at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show this week. While other notable vehicles have already been confirmed for the guest list, some brands are keeping tight-lipped until the 11th hour.

One of the cars that is rumoured to show up is the Audi RS3->ke3198 and while nothing has been confirmed regarding its appearance, one Audi dealer in Cape Town, South Africa seems to know more than we do.

In a tweet he posted on his Twitter site, the dealer said: "Looking forward to the unveiling of the new Audi RS3. 2.5L five-cylinder turbocharged engine, 4WD & 335Bhp. See it at Frankfurt Motor Show."

A number of other sources, most notably those coming from Ingolstadt – Audi’s headquarters, have also let the cat slip out of the bag, despite no formal announcement coming from Audi themselves.

In any event, the Frankfurt Motor Show is only a week away so any and all rumours regarding the appearance of the RS3 is bound to pick up as the days leading to the show winds down.

We’ll keep you posted with any new developments.
