As of now, we've seen plenty of photos and footage of the upcoming 2012 BMW M5 (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/25/rumormill-2012-bmw-m5-to-get-manual-tranny-in-u-s/), and now the grandaddy of videos has just been released. This time, BMW (http://autoblog.com/make/bmw) has leaked nearly 30 minutes of the M5 undergoing cold weather testing in the Alps. There's plenty of everything here, from nice stills to rolling footage of the upcoming M car bounding through the snow.

The F10 M5 is rapidly approaching its debut, first at a private BMW (http://www.autoblog.com/make/bmw/) press conference at the end of this week, then at the Shanghai Motor Show (http://autoblog.com/category/shanghai-motor-show) in mid-April. We already know that the car will have a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 replacing the outgoing car's V10, and Americans will still be able to get a traditional stick shift. We're ready, BMW. Hop the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/29/video-30-minutes-of-raw-bmw-m5-footage/#continued) for the video.
