According to AutoBild (see my post above), the next gen 5-series will have carbon and other light weight components.

The M5 will be 180kg lighter, or 400lbs (396lbs)

All just rumours at this point in time though...
Well that's even better! I think I'd go for awd at that point. With all this power it just barely gets it to the wheels as it is now, I can't imagine rear wheel drive with a significant increase in hp. AMG got it right, but M can do it better.
