Whenever I have to drive near the "Fiz" (BMW design/development HQ) I see a test mule every single time. This time I decided to follow it and saw where it went. Not only was there a test mule car park there, I only had to wait literally 26 seconds (with my camera recording) and one came out.
Here's what I believe to be an F10 5er:

Hopefully you get to see an M version, either M5 or M-Sport pack! They normally have those available at release now a days.

No need for that.
There's allways someone taking pics for car magazines.
Most pics are from "around" the FIZ and "The Ring".
