Sad to see... that Lexus sure held up better than the vintage Pontiac. Not many crash-worthiness requirements in the 60s!

Nothing more than I would expect to see when you have the backing of the engine and the more solid part of the car versus the Pontiac's weakest point. Crash them head to head and I bet the lexus will look worse off.

I wonder if Asians car insurance is more than average? :p

Well being that the Pontiac is about 10 years newer than the Caddy I still think it would be a different story.

:lol:

You would think that the crash worthiness of the pontiac would be that much better because it's 10 or 15 years newer. :(

Yeah because as you can see the newer Malibu compared to the Caddy that the safety and strength of vehicle didn't change at all.... :lol: :rolleyes:
