The Civic has a 5 star crash test rating all around except the side impact front passenger which has a 4 star.
The A4 has a 4 star crash test rating all around except the side impact front passenger which has a 5 star.

EDIT: For the driver of the vehicle, The Audi has 4 stars for front impact and 5 stars for side impact. The honda has 5 stars front impact, and 3 stars side impact. Not only that, but regardless of the car you are driving, a side impact is far more likely to injure or kill you than a front impact. Furthermore, the Audi is 500lbs heavier than the honda, which would also make it safer. Therefore, if I was the one deciding betwen the Audi and the Honda, I would be safer in the Audi and would take that into consideration.

Just a correction.. The side impact on a 2006 civic front passenger is only 3 stars
(yikes)... Everything else looks good to me.

Make sure you put up a link to a site that backs this up. The site I referrred to has only good, fair poor etc...... A star rating would be cool to see but I don't have the time to find such a site right now.
I stand corrected. The website I went to early stated the Civic had a 4 star front passenger side impact. According to NHTSA it says it has a 3 star. Most accidents are front and rear accidents not side. so if I had to choose which of the cars would be safer IMO is the Civic.
