Well I'm not sure about which options that particular car has but for sure even fully loaded M5 does not weigh a lot more than 4400 lb why? because the base or near the base 2013 M5 with DCT weighs 4300 lb

B&O and full leather and executive package will not weigh (together) more than 100 lb IMO

MT reported 4348 lb here for non CP M5 with DCT
Or 4369 lb here for another CP M5 with DCT

And if you want to know the European spec of M5 (which is the base model) it's 1945 kg (4279 lb)

You can tell from the MSRP it's an M5 with 20" wheels and exec package. That 4369 lbs figure is more realistic for a well equipped car.
