Even though the car was allready shown at different auto shows it's still not out, so it's still top secret...

So I shouldn't take the picture of the car not to upset the test driver? I don't know, it is still a public place, if it is still a secret why they go out on public streets?
When the M5 will be available for buying? I thought they already started selling it in Germany... So this was still an unreleased car?!?
