    BMW 5 Series - Worst Crash Test Rating!!

    The 2008 BMW 5 Series was the worst performer in new side-impact crash tests of luxury sedans by the insurance industry.

    The Acura RL, Kia Amanti and Volvo S80 all earned the highest safety rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, according to results released Thursday. The Cadillac STS and Mercedes E-Class earned the second-highest rating.

                                          Kia has come a long ways, but I wouldn't buy one now. I'd let them prove their line more, at least a few more years of tweaking their vehicles.

                                          Shocking about BMW. It makes me reconsider my interest in that line.

                                          I have always liked Acura.

                                          The Audi A8 used to have a superb safety rating. Is it still highly rated?

                                                          BMWs are sportive cars. It should be safe ... I don't understand why it got these results

                                                          If I would have to choose from a BMW and a KIA I will choose for sure the BMW anytime ;) .

                                                                          Look at the low end Kia and Hyundai cars now. Even the Accent/Rio come with standard A/C, airbags, heated seats, blah blah blah AND a 10 year warranty. The comparable GM car costs more and offers less.

It was one to simulate a truck or SUV hitting a car. That's going to change the results quite a bit. It's good they're doing those kind of real world tests now though.
