I have yet to see a image of one that burned.

Have you not viewed what happens when you turn vdc off?

Few years back, someone got into a head on collision with a Chevy truck. The driver and the passenger died in the Chevy while the couple in the 370z survived. Driver suffered broken leg while his wife walked away without a scratch. There was a thread about this.

Did they ever officially release the crash test ratings for the 370? I heard through the unofficial grapevine that it did better than the 350, and if im not mistaken that has a very good crash test rating? Nothing to back up those claims, im just repeating things ive heard over the years.

But yeah motorcycle>car when the two meet. All that energy is focused in a little tiny knife edge and slammed into the weakest part of the car, the side. Or it just got hit by a smaller car that was going 90+ mph.
