Glad to hear that you're ok (at least your post implied that...). Not to malign Saab's crash-worthyness, but my '67 Mustang folded up exactly the same way your car did. It was close to 15 years ago, but I t-boned a full-size pickup at about 45 mph in the Mustang and it crumped up just like that. The hood folded up enough to see under it, and the whole front end folded back just like an accordian. The car didn't have shoulder belts (no mounting points), so I broke my nose on the steering wheel. I had installed high-back buckets out of a '70 Mustang the weekend before, so managed to avoid any neck injuries.
Isn't it cool to find out that the car works like it should?
