Hit a F**kin Deer!

Yea, tonight, comming back from church, im doing 35-40miles per hour (the speed limit) the next thing i know, 20 feet in front of me, a deer bolts into the freaking road.

I swerved so hard that i managed to not take out the whole freakin deer, but clipped its *** with the right side of the brand new 08 G35xS (900miles on it)

Im PISSED.

The car is going to need a headlight and a fender for sure, and some buffing..

I will get pics. Im so pissed, dad hasnt seen it yet, but how the hell am i supposed to avoid somthing that bolted right out in front of me. WTF.

Im so angry, but on the other hand, im happy it wasnt my car. This one is a lease.

That's what insurance is for.

It's not your car, and hitting a deer is one of the rare instances where there is usually nothing you can do to avoid it. Have your dad make an insurance claim and his G will be back in great shape before you know it.

Just be happy you weren't injured - having a deer come through the windshield can kill you.

Doesn't take much... considering the speed limit and how far your headlight beams travel. That's why I always use my high beams if I'm alone on a road likely to have deer.

Just last night I passed 5 deer in a matter of 1/2 mile from my house. One was running across the street, three were chilling eating (then ran) and another was just staring at me. I honked, flashed the brights off and on - nothing. F*cker just sat there. Didn't want him to hoof my car so I just drove on.

Dang, that sucks. I thought the '08 was your Dad's. Do you get to pick any of your 4 Infiniti's to drive everyday? Bet you wish you took the old one that day? Hope the repairs go smoothly and quickly.
