As exiting as it is for me to have someone on the forum who is awsum enough to apparently have a Ferrari, let me just say:

A) If you have such an issue with Nissans and Japanese cars in general, join a Ferrari Forum

B) Find me evidence of a Ferrari with a 5 star safety rating....

Interestingly, NCAP 2009 top five does have a Euro car on top

Followed by 2 Japanese cars (2+3), then a Korean (4), with another Japanese and 2 Euros coming in equal 5th.. so of the 7 cars in the top 5, 3 are Japanese, 3 are European, and one is korean, making it 4 Asian cars all up... NO Italians, 1 German....

Further to that, suggesting that saving weight reduces crumple zones and strength... Crumple Zones are a designed weak spot, which is in actual fact a direct opposite to strenght.

Good luck to ANCAP getting a Ferrari for crash testing purposes in this country. Its funny when you read through the back of Top Gear AU magazine there is no crash test info on any of the supercar manufacturers, whether it be Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche or Aston Martin. I must say props to Audi though for letting the people at ANCAP destroy an R8, now thats commitment to safety.

In the quest for speed, sacrifices are made to weight reduction, most of the sacrifices reduce the strength and crumple zone of super cars. The Italians and Germans have done it right. By the looks of this car Toyota has forgotten about safety to build a stupidly quick car. In the end that is what you have to expect can happen when travelling high speeds in any car. A helmet can improve the chance of survival, but it doesn't mean you can survive big crashes...

grow up mate... no one wants to read that kind of elitist shit on here...

go find a ferrari fanboi forum where comments like that will earn you a reacharound from a rich fag while you all bukakki some hundred dollar bills

+11ty. what a homo.

what are you doing on a nissan forum anyway?

and this is your sig?

The car brand I support puts it's profits into motor Racing and stimulating their local economy to make more pasta, your car brand puts their profit into PR campaigns and the killing of whales...

shouldnt you be prancing around somewhere, trying to buy friends/respect?

Seriously? You are going to judge the absolute safety of the millions of cars made in Germany/Japan on one accident involving a single vehicle from each country? And also the safety of all Italian cars as well, how this is even the slightest bit relevent I'm not sure though.

The cabin of the LFA doesn't even look that bad, no visibly worse than the BMW cabin to me. I'd wager that the differing outcomes for the Lexus driver and the BMW drivers has more to do with bad luck, or maybe the fact that the lexus test driver was a frail 67 years old.
