Upcoming 2011 BMW M5 spotted again during cold weather testing

Time marches on and the F10 BMW M5 continues its cold weather testing ahead of its scheduled launch for 2011. To recap, this car is expected to utilize a turbo charged V8 engine derived from the motor used in the X5 and X6 M. Power outputs are still unknown but I would bet on it being higher then that of the X5/X6M. Other M5 Spy pictures can be seen here.

Don't worry guys. This car doesn't have the final bumper, but the general F10 bumper. We saw the final design here already: http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=303014

I' am curious to as why BMW chooses to continue to camo up the next gen M5. The F10 5 series has been released and the majority of the body panels have already been exposed. Granted, the front bumper, rear bumper, and side skirts will be different..

What gives?

I hope that it is way more aggressive in appearance. That car looks like a standard F10.

+1, I wish it had more to differentiate it from the regular F10.
