Just like any other PS job they just took elements from newly released BMW models as well as the latest BMW concept cars and blended them with the current model. In this case it has the CS front, M6 167 wheels, and everything behind the front door is "almost" identical to the E60. I am sure the front may look somewhat similar to that, but the whole package may not be anything close to this PS. If the PS "blends" for past models are any indication then 9 out of 10 of the predicted pictures in these "Scoops" end up being completely off from what the final product looks like.

March 2009 sounds too early to me..........that would mean that the E60 would have been in production for barely 6 years.....if that. I think it may be 2010 before it comes out.
