Here you go. Here's yet more proof that Lexus vehicles are built to survive. And we don’t necessary refer to survive over time, like the ’96 LS 400 did and it’s still a sought after car for tuners.
No, here we talk about another type of survival. The one involving plummeting into a canyon and not turn into a pile of twisted metal.

A 79-year-old woman plummeted with her Lexus about 90 meters (300 feet) into Malibu Canyon, California, Sunday afternoon. The Lexus involved, which appears to be an RX model, seems to have taken more damage from the rescue team rather than the fall.

The woman suffered some back injuries and she was promptly flown by helicopter to the nearest hospital by the Malibu Search and Rescue Team (SAR). No word on what caused the accident though.
