This is a lot more complex than it looks.
Assumptions:
1) The cars are absolutly identical and symmetric (as they will be hitting each other with the opposite sides).
2) The solid object is immovable.
If these are both the case then the impact theoretically would be exactly the same.
In the case of the 2 cars each would crumple at exactly the same rate thereby presenting what would be a flat immovable object to the other.
If there was a difference in structure between the two vehicles then the result could be anything from total annihiliation to "did you here something then, sounded like bump".
But is all cases some if not all of the people will not have a lot of fun....
