mercfan382 Says:

Jan 24, 2008 - I wonder how the 2009 A4 and the 2008 C-class would do, and these bumpers were meant to deform as in a crumple zone, so lets see 2 evenly matched deformable bumpers in a crash?

Jan 26, 2008 - well they probaly flashed because when a car hits something the brakes automatically turn on

karkraz Says:

Jun 25, 2008 - what does that infiniti not have a rear bumper or what?? shit. i was hit from the back in my 93 integra by a newer ford focus, i was slowing down to change lanes, i was going about 15mph and she was going upwards of 30 when she hit me, and there was almot no damage to either car other than a few scratches to the bumper covers and my foam absorber was squished up prety good.

karkraz Says:

Jun 25, 2008 - DAMN did you see the headlight lense flex on the white audi....

Jun 27, 2008 - I think they should perform the high-speed crashes against this barrier because the risk of slamming into the back of a car at 40 M.P.H. is greater than slamming into a wall.

ilovenissan Says:

Jul 1, 2008 - still love my infiniti

Mcmerc01 Says:

Jul 12, 2008 - wtf why doesnt he go make a car himself mr smart ass...

Jul 26, 2008 - Some car manufacturers will never make or install "bumper bars" for the follwing reasons 1. it costs the greedy tycoons more to install them on every mass produced car. 2. the greedy tycoons will want you to take your car back to them to repair it! more damage made means MORE MONEY SPENT! So the whole outcome is, car manufacturers are gaining more points against the consumers by not installing them at all Thats my opinion anyway

colibridelapampa Says:

Aug 3, 2008 - WOW...The flexi-head-light of the white Audi is fantastic!!!

rollsroyce124 Says:

Aug 4, 2008 - they liked to crash the audi b/c its horn honked

yelkin2 Says:

Sep 23, 2008 - good observation...aside from repair bills you also have to deal with therapy treatment for it's trauma...

Ryantravisaol Says:

Sep 23, 2008 - lol

Ryantravisaol Says:

Sep 23, 2008 - they should give us shirts at the end of this that reads "I Cant Believe I Watched The Whole Thing!"

hectorniko Says:

Sep 27, 2008 - What happens to these cars after they are done with the testing? Salvage? Scrap? What?

Gazdatronik Says:

Oct 19, 2008 - I designed and installed my own damn bumper push bars for about 30 bucks. Anybody who can't do what I did for themselves.....well, natural selection. I get to live and they get to die. Simple as that. Identify the problems and fix them, otherwise, you are a helpless whimpering coward. I hate cowards. I have to deal with them all the time and their complaints, like some kind of consumer advocate god is supposed to protect them from "bad stuff." well, there is no god, You have to look after yours.

1ns4ne1d10t Says:

Oct 20, 2008 - well who cares about bumper bars anyway. I know what cars im buying and not buying so im not bothered as long as its got an outstanding crash safety record. Bumper scrapes happen through driver error so as long as u r careful, u aint gotta worry

SteelCity1981 Says:

Nov 11, 2008 - they recycle the scraps and sell the good parts to junk yards etc..

Pneukauf Says:

Dec 11, 2008 - You can't build bumpers that are so high like they want them,its just a stupid test.And where do you find such an adamant bumper who dont move, the car has to slip under it?When to cars crash at low speed normaly both bumpers are at the same level and both deform. Its an escapist test with no conclusion for reality.But the idea of the test, is not bad.

xdir Says:

Dec 17, 2008 - Crap test, if you hit another car at 5mph head on then its bumpers will absorb some of the damage, you are unlikely to hit an unmoveable object. Even a hydrant or a pole will bend or break absorbing some of the energy.

Jan 1, 2009 - i know! lol
