You should have taken more pics after he yelled at you.
It seems BMW will never get the rear of their 5 series just right...
I've never seen a pre-production car roaming the streets...

Yeah i thought it was the new M5, but the guy wouldn't give up any info, just said "i don't know what they are gonna call it, i just get paid to test drive it"
The dude was pretty chill, he yelled at me at first "NO PICTURES!" then laughed after i kept snapping
You can't really tell in the pic, but the black one had a lip spoiler on the trunk (~2.4" tall), and the silver one did not. Also the silver one had what looked to be Brembos at all 4 corners, where the black did not?? Both had drilled rotors though.

Yea its the 2013? BMW M5. To tell you the truth I'm not impressed by the looks. Power sounds great though! 547 horsepower and around 500 lbs of torque. With a twin-turbo 4.4 liter V8
