Yeah, they get better crash ratings in America due to the different standards they use here.
Yes, standards by not including electronic safety mitigation devises in your ratings, pretty backward considering most cars have them.
And for a Mustang door to fly open in a side pole crash test is also a big fail, that has nothing to do with standards.
And it failed twice.
ND MX-5 gets a 5 star rating, as does the CX-5,3, and 6 and CX-9.
Nah, I love my RX-8. But the Mustang is light years ahead of anything Mazda has or will have. No one who buys a Mustang gives a **** about crash ratings.
