Our spies have caught the first pictures of the 2012 BMW M6 on the Nurburgring Nordschleife.

While still heavily camouflaged, we can see the car will closely resemble the Gran Coupe Concept. Despite this, the M6 will feature a more aggressive front splitter, modified bumpers, and a larger air intake. Other goodies include a lowered sport suspension, cross-drilled brakes, massive wheels (which look like 19- or 20-inchers), and a four-tailpipe exhaust system.

Power will likely be provided by a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 with 555 hp (408 kW / 563 PS) to 570 hp (425 kW / 578 PS). This should enable the coupe to accelerate from 0-60 mph (96 km/h) in under 4.2 seconds.
