    Except for the fine print that says "excludes performance versions of any car because of their propensity to be involved in more serious accidents". I'd say that we all have the safeist fast cars possible, at least for people with side airbags. I mean seriously, out of all the wrecks we've had, the worst thing was what, a broken arm? not bad...

    This ought to keep the 'rents happy about the decision to let me buy this car.

    Performance vehicles aren't considered for the award no matter how safe they are because they're more likely to get into accidents.

    Still nice to know though.
