It never pays to steal. *tisk**tisk*

On the upside, while the fit does look to be in bad shape, I'd say it is due in part to the use of the jaws of life to extract the two front passengers by removing the roof. If you envisioned the roof to still be intact in that photo, well I'd say the car, for all it's pint sized glory, held up okay. I mean, the internal bumper support or whatever it's called in there, the car frame looks to be decently still straight, and those kids were saved from further injury or death by all those standard airbags. The crunch zones did exactly what they were supposed to do, absorbing the brunt of the impact force. So, all in all, I'd say we fit owners can definitely rest assured that this car can handle being wrecked not only in crash test settings but in the real world and will do all it can to keep the occupants out of as much harm as possible (slamming into a concrete pillar, well, there's not a whole lot any car could do...)
My hope is that these kids walk away from this, and not only earn a lesson - and also realize that Honda, the miracle company, is all about second chances 8-) (how cliche, right?)
