Default Airborne RX

Can't tell if this is a RX or NX but watch this video. Lucky to be alive!

looks like a 3rd RX... the wheels look like the F-sport ones from the previous generation.

Florida teens go a little too far and get airborne in a poor Lexus RX.

"it's amazing that the driver and passenger escaped with only minor injuries, including some broken ribs for the driver" - from the article

as far as I know no one has died in a Lexus RX, though these teens tried real hard
