Carbon Black, black Dakota leather, advantage, comfort and M-Sport package, comfort seats, sport automatic transmission, alarm system, rails, folding and auto dimming mirrors, PDC, xenons, hi-fi loudspeaker system, USB interface, detachable towbar, navi pro, bluetooth phone prep.
light package.
Yeah it surely resembles the E90, not that I have anything against the look of that model - but why would BMW design a brand new 5-series that looks like something launched in 2005.....The design is boring and you could fear that the F10 will look outdated fast.

"Trial Vehicle" is what the literal translation is. However, in auto parlance slang "erprobungs fahrzeug" = test mule..

I like it too...I'm getting one! 
Mine will be March 2012. Hoping to get F10 M5. If that debate dosen't go well for me at home, it will be another 550i Sport for me, but probably in Titanium Silver. I love my Carbon Black but living in NYC, it is hard to keep clean. My TS 540 always looks clean.

I don't like the new look of the front with that grill, which is on all BMW's now.
But that car surely is sweet.
I'm still thinking about getting the F01 though...

With 40 more bhp and 90 more lbs-ft of torque, your F10 550 will probably make your E60 550 feel so by comparison -- especially off the line. I think that, if I get the F10 550, it will be difficult not to get an ECU reflash with an increase in turbo boost. Even a mild tune should increase power to over 500 bhp.
