Savvy marketing, re: "IQ" name?

Speaking of death traps, imagine driving a pissant car like that on the I-5 ;)
Not to long ago, I saw 3 SUV's in one wreck. All survivors were sent to the hospital by air-ambulance.
But of course you're invulnerable in your Buick Limited. These IQs seem no more of a death trap than a Topolino Fiat or a hundred other small cars, and they're not a vehicle of choice to go 80 on the freeway. It looks like a great shopping car, not for 75 mile commutes.
any that didn't survive, to your knowledge? If they were SUV's I'll wager at least one of them was on a cellphone. I seldom see an SUV without the driver yakking on the cell....even when parking in a supermarket lot. What the hell can they have to say that's so important?
"Compact city car". Hmmmm... something tells me that's a vehicle marketed for city, around-town driving, not directed toward a freeway/long-haul market.

I thought the City was a Honda sold in Japan.
It's perfectly safe if you follow the directions in the owner's manual and fill the interior up to the headliner with lemon Jello (Do not use deadly strawberry Jello; regular strawberry Jello OK)..
I believe someone died. They had emergency blankets and sheets up around a certain area.
Also a great college town car... and great urban car... and maybe even a great second car for suburban families...
Either people will buy it or they wont...
