I wanted to talk a little about the safety of the car. I googled it and found out it has 5 star front impact and 4 star side impact.

http://www.internetautoguide.com/crash-tests/09-int/2005/ford/mustang/

http://www.automotive.com/2005/12/ford/mustang/safety/

Im impresed that it has such a high rating. Are these sites i look at the right ones or are they

Im kind of big on safety since the last crash i had i almost died 2 months after it happend.

Back in Jan I was doing 45mph down a street in Westminster, CA, when one of the 'locals' pulled a fairly typical maneuvre - pulled out right in front of me whilst looking the other way. Front end folded like a cheap suit and soaked up nearly all of the impact. 10 out of 10, I say.

I remember that accident. And, if I remember correctly you weren't injured.
