How well do coupes hold up in accidents?

I've seen lots of photos of the coupe sin accidents, but not much of a description in the threads. For those of you that have been in an accident, can you post details/pics/links to pics, of your accident. I know the safety features of the car are ranked high by JD, but nothing compares to real life incidents.

My coupe was hit while parked. The person that backed into it was going less than 5 mph and backed into the left front corner (with a PT Cruiser of all vehicles). It destroyed the bumper, headlight, left front fender, left front wheel and pushed the door and rear quarter panel out of alignment. It was a fairly expensive repair, which has most recently topped the 8K mark (since additional accident related problems have appeared since the repair). I was frustrated with how much damage there was for such a slow speed hit. I have pics, but they aren't on my blackberry- I'll attach when I get home.

i was involved in an accident aswell, if you search my profile, you can find my old threads about it. Basically some drunk b*tch decides to make a left hand turn trying to beat me as i was comming from the opposite direction going about 25mph....i ended up smashing into her and the driver bag blew....costed a lil over $5-6k from the dealer. Car is fixed now and honestly, i feel like its better than ever.
