stewartg Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 man i hate crumple zones. in that frontal damage test the entire front of the car gets annihilated. i guess they might have saved me at the cost of the car when I totalled my impreza at what I thought was not "too" bad of an accident. 0.5 seconds later though and I would have been toast.

deneb Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I like crumple zones on my car, since my own body lacks them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukeTrout Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 That inspires a little confidence. Wow, in the Legacy GT frontal crash, the crash test dummy even yawned after the crash... Ich bin echt viel netter, wenn ich nuechtern bin. Echt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusgusdude Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Those of us that own an 05 don't have the same level of side protection. They upgraded it for 2006 and newer. Frontal protection is the same I still feel safe anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 ^^^ The 05's are still safer than a ton of vehicles out there... even if we get creamed broadside by an SUV. I trust this car with my wife and two little girls in it as much as if I owned an Escalade or some other tank... but with this car I don't have to worry about my wife rolling it over if she so much as swerves to avoid an old tire on the highway.

PGT Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Did you guys check out the rebound of the Mini Cooper? WOW! Sorry PGT Cheers, Mike yeah, but it's still considered safe in frontal crashes. Notsomuch for rear seat passengers, but good thing nobody fits back there anyways and the carseat will only be occupied for 3 miles at 25mph one way each day.
