Should handle better. The M5 will be fine in a 1/4 race with it.
I was able to get a very limited test drive in this car at pebble beach in August. Yes it seemed fast but not more so than the E63s. I really liked the interior however there is no outward visibility at all. Blind spots all over the car, they might as well left out the rear windshield it's so bad. The exterior looks nice however on closer inspection so of the details were horrible like plastic vent covers that wouldn't be allowed on a Chevy Cruze. Very very cheap looking. I asked the MB rep if it was a pre production detail and he seriously said no that's how it will be. I really was excited about this car to replace the M5 next year but would not spend $185k for this.

Even took some pics of the vent and blind spots
