I'd like to see that at 140. Focus turned into a silver dollar? Makes me think twice about going over 100. I'll still do it, I'll just think twice about it first.

I'd think about any car at 120 would do that.

i would bet a full frame car would suffer less damage. there would be deaths but at leas the bodies would be recoverable. the focus per say was a wad of dough with raisens(people) neaded into it, good luck with a open casket. :(

That is an older focus. The new one would be considerable less damage. Cars have come a long ways for structures.

True, which is probably why they do not do a test with full frames. No test, no comparison = cheaper cars. CONSPIRACY I SAY! :lol:
