This just shows the complete ignorance and simply, the stupidity of alot of people no matter what they drive. There are idiots on both sides. I've seen Mustang guys say things like "Oh no the Camaro V6 is gonna kill our GTs!!!" and some Camaro supporters legitimately believe that this is true also. Looking through most of the posts on that AFM thread, I'd be willing to bet most of them don't understand the concept of power-to-weight ratio.

Still waiting but. It's already saved one persons life IMO*. From that black SS that got totaled from the rear. You could see how awesome the safety is.

If that was my old vette it could of been fatal. Not to sound bad but on the vette world it's par for the course to loose friends now and then. Where this car your gonna hear more of it saving people.

Just has to be NTSB approved. The stars are just more of a bonus.

It's gonna be 5 star all around that's what they where shooting for.

The only thing I would like to see is adding a roll gyro to stabilitrak to match
Fords roll control in future Year models.

I think you mean NHTSA. (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration)

NTSB investigates major Transportation Accidents. - (i.e. Ships, Airplanes, Railroad, Trucking accidents)

NTSB is the National Transportation Safety Board

I'd have to see how fast the car was traveling that hit it, before I could judge the awesomeness. Anyone have that info?

I think it will be 5 star all around. Just feels like a really solid car. We've seen what happens when it gets hit from behind, that looked good for the circumstances. The car is just so solid all around, it would surprise me if it was poorly rated.
