@gitnerd Testing using computer models is becoming more and more common in Civil/structural field because it saves money in the long run. Of course it was hard when it first started but now its easier to test using computer models and make design changes rather than build something and then try to deal with it.
@MrSillieWe All the computer simulations do is hint at which design will fare better in an actual test, so that when the time comes to do the actual test, resources aren't wasted on designs that perform poorly. This helps perfect the performance of the product rather than shoot in the dark with it.
@MrSillieWe you can crash a car in so much more ways using advanced physics simulation (not real-time physics like games, but one that takes time processing in a huge computer), submitting real cars to so many crash tests in so many different situations rise it's price to millions...
The Lexus LFA is the most overpriced supercar in history, for 375 grand, it should be able to do at least 215-220, it should be able to accelerate faster than 3.5 seconds.
for 84 thousand dollars, the Nissan GT-R boast almost all of the same performance specs, and has better cornering abilities thanks to AWD.
Dollar for dollar, I challenge you to find a better super car than the GT-R.
@adil06944 Lol programming a crash simulation program with a physics engine tuned to exact specifications of a car's weight, build, durability, not to mention the physical attributes of the metal is EASY?? I dont think so... You get a masters in computer science which takes you 6 years, head on down to Toyota, work 9 years on the program (research it), and then tell me if it was easy.
@JessePlaysGuitar Then buy a boat? Or a water landing plane? I mean, for what some of these lexus' cost that really shouldn't be too much of an issue.
@RamadaArtist if i pay 325000 dollars for the lexus LFA it better be able to fly and drive on water but at a top speed of 202 mph and 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds it shouldnt be that hard..
the recall was not because of floor mats it was because the computer sensors at least on the hybrids wouldnt switch from charging the battery to fully breaking properly
@cdjred no it doesnt, but does yours? listen, people were told to use oem floor mats but toyota/lexus isnt blaming the consumer, they took full responsibility for it even though no one thought of their own safety to check that the mat stays in place. When ever i take my floor mat out to clean it i always make sure the hook is holding it in place when i put it back. No computer could ever predict that some people would carelessly throw floor mats in there with no concern for their own safety.
love lexus

crashing one in a computer is way fucking different from crashing a real one buddy

The hard war is trying to sell a car costing close to half a million bucks for a car that is not much faster than a 35 grand STI.

@gyro231995 I agree, and on any given day with the right driver, the 35 grand STI will probably beat the $500,000 upscale toyota Lexus..lol

crashing a lexus using a computer program? makes me so much more confident in our cars...

How is this the hard way? This is the easy smart way. Finally one of these videos makes sense. But they are very entertaining.
