This M5 arrived in Taiwan last week and the accident happened just a few days after it passed Taiwanese car inspection. When the accident happened, the car only had temporary testing license plates and had no insurance on the car. The accident happened during a magazine road test against an E55 AMG.

The driver was trying to take a corner with a very uneven road surface, and lost the backend, hit the divider, flipped the car 3 and a half times, and was stopped by a tree. 3 passengers were in the car, 2 of which walked away without a single scratch, 1 had a minor scratch on his arm.

Car was totaled, as it's structure is damaged beyond repair, but no one was seriously hurt. The M5 is definitely a very safe car.

The magazine that's responsible for this on the other hand, will have to pay for the car, since the car didn't have insurance yet at the time of the accident.
