<VV> Acura announcement - Not too much Corvair content

Is this an example of Japan (50-odd years later) still trying to win in  
WWII what they lost in '45?

New  engineering thinking added to the newest Acura.  This vehicle has been 
 designed to collapse in some areas and stay rigid in others.  The  
demonstration in high speed slow motion shows the front section of the body  frame 
crushing and the passenger section staying rigid.  That is new  thinking 
from Japan ... Those of us that have been involved in testing have  seen it the 
other way around for years :-( in Japanese  vehicles.
