Another M5 wreck

This M5 rolled 4 times and both the driver and passenger walked out without any scratches. That's why I buy BMW. BMW should offer driver training for such a fast car before you pick-up.

OMG! BMW does offer a two day M driving training for new buyers in Spartanburg. I guess they'll have to make it mandatory???

BMW should give an IQ test before selling these. How the hell do you roll an M5 four times? I bet he's back on the list for one or got a new Pcar etc.

hehe... i was wondering how soon till the first wrecked pics would show..

too many people with more money then common sense and even less skill...


btw, you can't make a driving course mandatory or even mention anything like that... porsche got sued and lost because they put it in of of their turbo manuals a while back. the story goes on something like the owner's wife took the car out to lunch with a girlfriend of hers. gets into a wreck that is her fault and the passenger is killed. so porsche gets sued for stating that "driver training" was neccessary to operate the car... since then, no car manufacturer even states anything remotely close to skill requirements in any of their publications....

That was an M5 that was obviously disrespected. It's a good thing nobody was killed.
