@benzguylv the airbag was in 81 (driver) and 87 for the passenger. no other car company can come close the amazing things mercedes have invented/pioneered.
Bulletproof build quality? Who are you kidding? My uncle has a 2006 LS430 and it's been in the shop numerous times. At around 20K, the alternator went out. At around 45K, the transmission went. The lights in the interior only work half the time. The cruise control doesn't work. The trunk leaks when it rains. The heated seats no longer work. Lots of electrical problems.
Anyway, this crash test isn't that good... Look at that front wheel. That could easily cause injury to the driver's legs.
@fordforme I have never herd of an LS of any year having transmission problems untill well over 250K. My 93 LS still runs like a raped bear. I highly doubt you are telling the whole truth. I have totaled and salvaged mine twice and don't have any of those problems. Not to mention you probably never changed the oil in it because your used to a ford which wont even make it to 3K miles.
Waste of a Lexus.

Lexus, Jaguars, Audis, Volvos, Saabs, and BMWs are some of the safest imports of all time.

@benzguylv Oops, my bad. :( I forgot that Mercedes invented the crumple zone in the 1950s as well.

The dummies head DID NOT hit the pillar.
It was probably one of the safest cars around at its time, because of its bulletproof build quality.

Believe me or not, I don't care. He apparently got a lemon, and yes, even Lexus has lemons. And these days they apparently have quite a few of them.

The dummy's head never hit anything besides the airbag, and never went outside the window. What video were YOU watching?
