As a prospective buyer of either an Evo or STi, this is one of the reasons I lean towards an STi, it has side airbags for side impacts like this accident. For this reason and a few others I'm definitely leaning towards the STi. Not to turn this into Evo vs. STi, but almost every car out there these days has side airbags, I'm not sure why Mitsu hasn't put them in the Evo yet. Maybe the X will have them.
I think EvoX comes with side curtain airbags as standard if ime not mistaken (who knows). I think thats the reason why they stopped getting evo's in 2007. Correct me if ime wrong but the government is requiring that import cars need to have side curtain airbags starting 2007.

Damn..... if the seat was crushed that way... imagine a passenger being in there......
ok lets not imagine.. GOOD thing you're ok! Just get a new evo and get some money for your injuries and move on!

I hate to sound like a broken record here; but I'm glad you're OK. 
If you can post some more pics of the damage, I'm sure a lot of us will find that info helpful. Thanks, and take care.
