Cool. I should print this out and show it to my insurance agent. Time to reduce my premiums a little.

When I sold my 2003 RSX and got the new IS, my insurance actually went down $100/yr and the IS is worth more than twice of the old car

Holy shi.t...I totally forgot how many airbags this thing has. I forgot where I saw this, maybe it was a cartoon. Basically someone got in a car accident, instead of an airbag popping out..the car immediately dispersed a thick foam that filled the entire car, encasing the passengers in a cocoon of foam. this kinda reminds me of that...okay I've used my 1 alotted random quip of the day.

yea i can say from experience that the IS is extremely safe, got into a pretty bad accident, airbags deployed, left only with airbag burn... we made good choices in choosing a car
