The pics make it look like the car is pretty ok even though the insurance totaled it out. Not the first time I've seen that here and it hurts my heart to see such a nice car being totaled when it doesn't look so bad.
The good side I guess is that the LS sure does hold up well when wrecked. That it looks good even after it's damaged enough to be a write off gives me a little confidence that the car is as safe and solid as I think it is. It's another reason I don't want to give up my LS.
Looking forward to the pictures of the nice 04-05 that you replace it with.

Speaking of the Lexus standing up in an accident there was a story about a year ago where 2 teens doing 80 mph rolled a 1992 lexus several times here in Orange County and both boys got out ok the police said the car held up better than most cars in such an accident.
