You pick the make and model and can watch'em crash it. Hate the Monte Carlo? Well watch them smash the POS over and over and over?

Maybe you just want to do some research before a purchase?

Either way...This is pretty cool.

The Chrysler 300 is my favorite video yet.
It will mess you up in a side impact.

The cavalier... one of the most common vehicles on the road, rates poor on everything. haha

Watch the video for the Cobalt. The front end on the thing crumples like a tin can... still gets a good rating though.

I t-Boned a Cavalier on the pass side and it held up surprisingly well.

On a side note: can that dudes hair GET any fuckin gayer looking?

NO is the answer.

I'm surprised at how bad the GM trucks/SUV are doing.
I mean with everybody getting them to feel safer, wouldn't they just love to know it's not really the case.

In the Kia Optima Video:

Side imapct, inside the car, driver.

Just before the sled slams in to the side of the car, a bug flies past the driver's head towards the windshield. Cracked me up.

Cool link. The Scion xB actually lifts completely off the ground on the front impact crash.
