The 90th Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is almost upon us after the race was postponed because of the large fires in Colorado earlier this summer.
Prior to this weekend’s race, Audi dropped a single photo of an RS5 dressed in the brand’s motorsports livery on its Facebook page with this enigmatic tag line:
“The 90th Pikes Peak International Hill Climb kicks off in just one week and to pay homage to our record-breaking past here, we’ve got a surprise in store for you.”
We checked the official list of participants at the 2012 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb (see below) and the only Audi models mentioned are the Quattro, A4 4.2, A4, S4 and Quattro Coupe, meaning that the RS5 teased won’t be taking part in the race.
One explanation could be that Audi has prepared a special edition of the RS5 Coupe or perhaps the yet-to-be-revealed Convertible model that has been caught testing several times over the past year.
In any case, we’ll update you as soon as we find out more.
