90LS400Lexus Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Since I am in the market for a new/used car, I have been browsing the IIHS safety site again. I thought that some Lexus owners here would like to know that they had safe cars (as if they did not already know that). :D Seems like most cars now have this high rating, but that was not always the case. I think these tests are great, because the crash performance of cars has drastically improved since these tests began in 1995. I remember when the 93 Lexus GS only got an average rating from the NHTSA full frontal crash rating when it first debuted, but this car was not tested by the IIHS. 01-05 Lexus LS- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0101.htm late 98-05 Lexus GS- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/99006.htm 03-05 Lexus GX/Toyota 4-Runner- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0309.htm 02-05 Lexus IS- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0129.htm 95-00 Lexus LS- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/96031.htm 99-03 Lexus RX- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/98022.htm 04-05 Lexus RX- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0322.htm 02-05 Lexus ES- http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0207.htm Mercedes also rate extremely high: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/00033.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0308.htm and BMW: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/00006.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0409.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/00023.htm even Honda: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0220.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/00031.htm Toyota: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0202.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0223.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0108.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/00012.htm Nissan: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0211.htm Acura: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0113.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0404.htm http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0405.htm VW: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/98010.htm Mitsubishi: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0123.htm Ford: http://www.hwysafety.org/vehicle_ratings/ce/html/0328.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
