Crash Test Ratings?

As long as the Airbags work? Will be fine.

I actually had a small discussion with my insurance company about this.

After going from my RSX-S to a 370z, my insurance rate dropped. I wondered why and asked.

I was informed that the 370z had better crash test ratings than the RSX-S that is why the insurance was cheaper.

Interesting as when I first joined the forum my wife and I were among the first to actually have a Z here. Somewhere buried in the posts you will find how AAA didn't even know how to insure the 370Z when we first brought it home. There were a few days where AAA had to arrive at a dollar amount for the insurance premium. AAA's reason? There were no crash ratings.
