Safety factor important?

According to US government death statistics for 98, 99 and 00 models in years 98 and 99:
Saab 2
Audi 6
Acura 23
BMW 36
For your reference Saab sold 70,000 cars in the US during those tow years. I don't have information on the rest. But I seriously doubt there were 11 and 1/2 times as many Acuras or 18 times as many BMWs. Audis obviously are down in the Saab range. Also for reference, I do know that Volvo sold 220,000 cars and had 48 deaths in these two years.
I bought my first Saab, a 9-5, 2 years ago. Now I have a 9-5 wagon, a 9-3 and a 9000 as well. I guess that should tell you my opinion about them.
