Other than a drivers side left foot crush injuries in a frontal collision it's pretty safe. Check out youtube and type in the year and model +crash test. It handles surprisingly well for it's size and has enough power to get you aaway from trouble and when you need to stop it does decent. I found that slapping ceramic brake pads on really helps with braking as well (as long as you don't plan to tow much).
