Best Birthday Gift Ever
e90 seems like the place to vent lately huh? So i was returning home last night from an early birthday dinner, when, what must've been a 400+ pound deer leaps out in front of my car, i try to swerve out of the way but can not do so completely, the deer clips my front right end, the wheel locks up and i have no steering, i go sideways down an embankment. the car tips on the right side and just before it rolls over comes down on all fours, SO THANKFUL myself and my pass. are OKAY, BMW engineering at its best. the car took the brunt of the impact, walked away with just a frac rib. it could've been much,much worse if the car wouldn't have reacted so nimbly. if your in the South Jersey area, please be aware of these animals, they literally will jump out randomly and from anywhere, i never saw it coming and i am usually very aware of my surroundings while i drive. these deers must have death wishes. So my birthday gift to myself? 5k in damages
Drive safe. hello mtech/vorsteiner hood?

That sucks! South Jersey is where I hit a deer.
What happened to the fender? Did pieces break off of it? I thought it was metal and would bend, not break.

So are you going to get a hunting rifle for your next birthday? Car vs. Deer never works out for the car.

Damn Rev, good thing everyones ok tho. I think an upgrade would make u feel better about spending $5k LOL
I'm always lookin out for deer while driving out into NJ or PA. Those guys are like suicide bombers they come outta nowhere... Nope, the fenders are plastic. I'm guessing just to keep some extra weight off. |

hit it hitting 75mph?? 5 mph?? you know speed is the key to this equation.. like i said my brother hit a 150-200lb deer (literally stopped and rolled into it) and no damage at all...... i dont get why yagsiver335i (or 335irevisgay ....) has such a huge problem with the OP
