"Loss results are stated in relative terms (100 represents the average result for all vehicles in each loss coverage category). Colors indicate results in relation to the average for all vehicles:"

The average is 100.

The average is determined by all of the cars in each class. If you look at the right side of the website, it shows you different classes.

In this case, 100 is the average for "Sports Models." So this would imply that the 370Z is 88% above average in terms of collision, but 12% below average in property damage.

It's simple, really.

Also, you keep dancing around the other point I keep making...
