3 star side impact???? Holy christ!!! And the new Corolla is touted as
the safest yet!!! No way would I trust a Corolla in open traffic.

If you really did any research you'd know the safest Corolla is the 2004. In
2005 the seats were changed and in a rear collision they would collapse.

Where are such factors as seat collapse in your research?

With the side airbag option all your test results become null.

Corolla + open traffic = 44 mpg!

And a better roll over rating than a Tribeca!
