Why? You want large metal beams running through your car when you're in an accident like that? Try wrapping a baseball bat with foam or rubber and have your friend hit you upside the head. Thats a rollcage in an accident.

the cage will hold up better than the sheetmetal on a car, so the whole getting hit with a baseball bat thing dosent hold much water

I think he is talking about your head moving around violently and hitting the cage.

Man this is an old thread, I had to go back and re-read what I said. Its getting to the point where you have to go to AZ or TX to have a Fox around here.

I think a cage would be "safe" if you wear a helmet... which you don't on the street. Maybe a 4pt wouldn't be that bad, only if you don't carry any rear passengers.

my fox and many many other cars here are 100% rust free! so dont leave out washington and oregon!it's weird to look at alot of members cars here and see rust on them, not like the rust on his coupe,but to see it on bolts and so forth of under hood pics! Man thats about the ONLY thing i dont miss about the east coast! peace
