Default Crossfire Crash Test

I never saw this video before. Not sure if it has already been posted (I don't remember seeing it around here). Check it out....

Pretty cool. Wow, did you see how high the rear end raised up? I didn't think the shocks would extend that much. LOL

I know two guys who have had their Crossfires totaled. One a rear end hit, the other the car flipped and hit a tree with two passengers inside. Both remarked how incredibly well the interior held up. In the second incident the tow truck driver commented that someone should have been killed in the accident, both kids walked away. We have a very safe car, I hope I never have to find out how safe.

The second video's been posted before. It's all just a blur of metal and shrapnel really. Wish I could understand Russian. Oh well...

The first video is interesting to see. Looks like the front of the car takes all the force. Imagine running your XF straight into a wall like that. Ouch... Whiplash to say the least, if not more.

I saw this about a month ago... the Crossfire is an exceedingly safe car, something that doesn't seem to be talked about. 4 star side impact rating on a car as small as this is phenomenal. I actually watch a lot of crash test videos... call me a nerd. MB's are my favorite to watch.
