Couple thing.
1. The car was not being driven by the press (in this case Taiwan Motor).
2. The driver was the E55 owner that brought in his E55 for the shoot out.
I guess this just goes to show you that typical E55 driver is not experienced/mature enough to handle a car like M5.
BTW, the car is not new either.? It already has 5,000 km on it.

M5 is a car for men, not boys. 
The E60 is a pretty safe car.
