My step-daughter was the passenger in really horrific three-car accident about ten years ago. Despite the fact that it was a three car crash with two of them hitting head on, everyone walked away. The car she was in? a 1997 Buick LeSabre. Any front-drive GM full-size, Like a Bonneville, LeSabre, Park Avenue or Delta 88 are blessed with a tremendously strong unibody structure. If you get in an accident with one of those, odds are you will win.
My son has had two LeSabres as a result. They have the 3800 V-6 and aren't so fast that your daughter is going to get in over her head. This is a solid vehicle platform that will serve you both well when the inevitable happens.
