LS430-6 airbags vs 8, 14
Does anyone else think it is odd that the ls430 only offers 6 airbags while the S-class haas 8 and the new 7 series will offer up to 14. Even lower models such as the a6, 5 series, and e class either offer 8 airbags have them standard or optional. The ls430 is missing the rear side airbags that most of those cars have. Does this make the car less safe?

My dad blew his knee out in a car accident man...He also has wrist bone explode too. The knee was fixable but his wrist, even post surgery, chronicly hurts him and he has problems bending it for things like golf because it starts to throb....

He didnt really plan to have the car. It was for an employee but he had a fallout so he took back the car and was driving it around till he figured out what to do with it...Then the accident occured....
