Description:
Now this is what crumple zones are for. Notice the lack of damage to the passenger compartment. Engines a different story.. but thats not the point of crumple zones.

Exactly, what most people don't understand is that these modern cars are actually safer than those old boats (StillRuns :P) because the car sacrifices itself and takes all the shock instead of it's occupants. |

#1, but there are some people (like me) that don't like that |

#1, I've tried saying that before, but it's just not worth the argument. Personally, I'll take a car with crumple zones any day; I've been in two wrecks in "modern" cars (one well over 10 years ago, but still), and despite the damage to the vehicles, I've emerged unscathed. |

And I disagree.
edit: I'd rather survive a wreck that destroys my car, than risk a possibly increased chance of death in accidents that wouldn't destroy a "stronger" car.

I had this teacher with a Ford Torino Elite (big ass boat) who was rear-ended by a brand new Buick in the early 90s. the whole front of the Buick was destroyed and steam was coming out and I think it had to be totalled, while the only damage to his car was a bent licence plate, I think they were only going about 15 MPH, too. Give me a full-frame car over this modern paper-mache crap anyday. |
