firsthand, i know for a fact that the WRX is one fucking safe car.... I had a WRX... July 4 I had ONE beer, and didn't want to risk driving and running into a DUI checkpoint (i'm 19), so i let my friend drive.. we had only about a 4 mile trip... it was me and 3 others in the car.. some big ass animal ran out in front of us on the interstate... my friend cut the wheel WAY to hard for 70mph, and then OVERcorrected..we went into a big fuckin slide, he turned the wheel, and we slide the other way... almost like what would happen if you blew the tire.... anyway, we went sliding down the median into the fucking trees.. slammed head first into them (all had our seatbelts on, or at least one of us wouldn't have made it) after the hood hit them, the back end swung around and the passenger side smacked into them.. we were all stunned.. it happened so quick.... we all climbed out(me and one other had to climb out the other side cause the doors were blocked by the trees IN them... the car was totalled, but there wasn't any broken glass or anything... when the 2 tow truck guy arrived(cause the first couldn't get the car from down in the woods, steep incline/wet grass) i saw the passenger side... didn't even seem dinted(but it was pitch black out).. the WRX has steel reinforces doors, side-impact airbags, dual front airbags, ABS, etc....
i don't know much about the neon, except i don't like them...
i was so pissed at my friend, but he felt terrible so i didn't beat his ass or anything... he couldn't really have done anything.... if i were driving it would have been a different story, but oh well...
