A batch of 35 official photos of the 2012 BMW M5 has been leaked ahead of its official reveal at the BMW M Festival at the Nurburgring. The images showcase the car's aggressive and purposeful design, with no excessive adornments.
The leaked photos are low-resolution versions of an official set, intended for a magazine but released prematurely. The source of the leak remains unknown. The 2012 BMW M5's twin-turbo V8 engine delivers an impressive 552 horsepower, enabling a 4.4-second 0-62 mph acceleration and a top speed of 305 kph with the M-Drivers Pack. The car is set to feature a dual-clutch transmission, with a six-speed manual as an option.
The official reveal of the 2012 BMW M5 is scheduled for the following week at the BMW M Festival at the Nurburgring. Despite the early leak, the anticipation for the car's official unveiling remains high.
