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.
that can't be right. unless it's the average for ALL sports models, not just the midsize. For collision average for midsize sports cars, it comes out to 145. Yet mustang with 137 and rx 8 with 134 are classified as much worse than average?

And the categories don't make any sense either. Mitsu eclipse in the same class as corvette zr1? And funny how the m3 is in the "luxury" section and not in the sports section. And audi r8 is considered "large" but the GT-R is "midsize"
