Default Safety Features

Hey,
Before I buy a Crossfire, which I love!! I need to know what all/ or most of the Safety features are that are avaiable on both the '04 and '05 Crossfires. In information regarding these features, including, for some, what they do would be great. Also, right now, I own a 2002 Honda Accord, how does the Safety features of this car compare to the Crossfire?

Thanks in Advance

It's a two seater with 4 airbags, it has traction control, yaw control, stability control, anti lock brakes and general overall Mercedes Benz rock solid build. I have no direct familiarity with anything Honda so I can't make a direct comparison.

What safety features are critically important to you?

Don't forget the Brake Assist System, exterior light failure warning, tire pressure sensor system, parking-side lights, auto-dimming rear-view mirror ('04), front-passenger airbag disable, wet and dry weather transmission modes (automatic) and crumple zones.

I have a 2001 Accord EX V6 Sedan. It has ABS, traction control, front airbags, side airbags, etc.
The Crossfires have front airbags, side airbags, traction control, stability control, ABS, TPMS, etc.
I feel just as safe in my SRT6 as I do my Accord.
They are both great cars in their own way.

When it comes to how "crash worthy" a car is, the rule of thumb usually is "Size matters".
But in this case, I'd bank on the Crossfire because it's built like a vault.

Looks like the Crossfire is as safe or safer than the Accord:

Don't forget the fog lamps! The brakes are something else, too!
