We are officially live from the BMW M Event in Germany. Jason and Southlight are both at the event having fun right now and have sent over the first pictures of the M3-Ute that was rolled out for the crowd. You can read all the details and download the official photos of the M3 Pickup here.

Just to recap to stop all the crazy speculation about jokes, etc... This is a one-off car made for internal BMW M use (as a transport "truck" for the BMW M Workshop), and is not intent for production! Don't take the car so seriously, its just for fun, live a little

I will update this thread as more live pictures come available!

I'm pretty sure that is what it is. I don't think they will show the F10 M5 in person until its official debut at the Shanghai show. Although I guess they could do a partial reveal like they did with the 1M.

Hasn't Scott's signature been about something happening on 4/1/11 for the F10 M5 Concept?

Yep. But the official debut is Shanghai. My understanding is that his sig was referring to the official internet reveal, including pics and some info about it.

Check my thread on the E90 M3 LTW. For sure that's at the show, but may or may not be what is under the cover. Like I say, I could see them doing an M5 tease too (maybe even with a production prototype rather than the concept prototype).

It weighs less than the M3 convertible. That is all and more the information I need to know the Vert is a bloated pig!

Was there ever any doubt?

The vert is definitely heavy, yup. Some people seemed to think this would weigh less than the coupe, which never seemed likely to me. I think its pretty clear now (if it wasn't before) that this was built on the convertible chassis and will naturally be heavier than the coupe.

if BMW didn't waste hundreds of thousands of dollars on an April fool's joke, maybe they wouldn't have to keep raising their prices every year!!

Sweet. More than pics, though, I just want the exact engine and transmission details from the M5, and I just have this feeling that we might not actually get them yet. Hope I'm wrong.
