Default Safety of subaru 1994?

Does anyone know the safety rate/tests for a subaru 1994?

All cars seem to have them but I cant find ones for older cars. Ive heard subarus are bad bad/good at crashing because there alloy chassis but the cage is thicker then usual. Just cos theres no air bags.

unsure, but you could fit a roll cage, as wrc cars don't have airbags

Its 15 years old, I wouldnt fancy a crash in one. Not designed to be a sports car really, just a shopping car on steroids. Dont know who told you about the alloy chasis but think they were pulling your plonker.

Steel chassis mate... Just a couple of alloy panels (that should save a kilo, LOL)...
