Undoubtedly it will fade from the forefront of technology when the F10 arrives. The 550 Sport is an ultracool car now and for the balance of its life.

The engine is definately going to be replaced in the next year or so. Rumor has it a new twin turbo V8 will debut in the next 7 series coming next year and the X6 and will undoubtly find its way into the next 5er

Certainly. I'm curious whether the 555 *is* an F10 model, or will it emerge as an '09 E60.

Keep in mind, companies file for lots of trademarks that ultimately do not get used.
However, I'd be doing the internet a disservice by not spawning some pointless, uninformed speculation.
