RS3, RS6 but no mention of a RS4 in this weeks Autocar

This weeks Autocar has a piece about the new RS6 - 500bhp turbo V8 which is meant to be an upgraded version of Audis 4.2 V8 running FSI- it says plans for a detuned V10 Gallardo engine have been abandoned "not enough space to package it"

Also in the advert for next weeks edition it says:

"Audi RS3 - First full details of the (real) worlds most desirable new car." :D

Nothing on the RS4.

Obviously none of this means anything is true but Autocar seem to be pretty good when it comes to future cars - also if the RS6 is going to have turbos then why wont the RS4?

PS They also have a major piece on the new M5 - looks the dogs

From what I've heard, Audi are denying all knowledge. The pictures are also the usual Autocar photoshopped fare; i.e.: at best inaccurate, at worst completely fabricated!
