In before "that will buff right out" comments.

Thank god she was able to walk away from that. Looks like a very serious accident.

 

Seriously though, I know a good bodyshop that would have that back on the road in 2-3 weeks.

 

wow I cannot belive that she walked away from that. One lucky lady.

 

Hooooly cow!!! Very fortunate to walk away from that

 

That looks really bad she's lucky to get out alive !!

 

wow shes is very very lucky
i dont even see where she could climb out
she must have had the sunroof already open before the crash...

 

Glad she is OK. An accident like that is serious buisness.

But it makes me wonder just HOW hard she yanked that wheel when she "corrected"...especially at just 45 MPH. An LS of that vintage is no Miata. With factory-spec tires and suspension, it is a classic nose-heavy, softly-sprung, luxobarge with marked understeer. Unless there was a big mechanical defect like a wheel falling off or a broken steering arm, you've REALLY got to push an LS to get it into an out-of-control situation, especially at lower speeds.....you don't spin one out just like that, the way you can with an older, pre-90's Porsche with drop-throttle oversteer.

 

"woman driver"

jk, jk

amazing how she walked away from that. I didn't know a sunroof could be a safety feature as well.

 

Who would pay for it? Certainly not insurance. That car was FAR more than totalled.

And, money or not, the only "shop" that could take care of a wreck like that in two weeks is the Lexus LS assembly plant in Tahara, Japan.

 

Wow...the woman has to be the super short-and-slim type to be able to survive that kind of headroom intrusion and climb out by herself. Very lucky of her indeed.

 

I agree that it was a truly remarkable and fortunate survival.........IF that is the way the car actually looked after the accident.

 

From now on she needs to ride the bus. No more nice cars should be screwed up by her....probably on her cell phone applying her make-up and eating a Mcdonald's low calorie salad all at the same time.

 

no way, she walked away? that's insane!

 

I'm riding with her.

 

I was only kidding of course.
