damnit-

40 mph in heavy traffic, deer comes slicing through between me and the car ahead of me.... the rest is history.....

zuggerat89 · 03-20-2009, 07:49 AM

holy crap man... that sucks, glad you're ok...

tpipta · 03-20-2009, 07:49 AM

Damn, looks like it could have been a whole lot worse! It would appear from the pics that both fenders and windshield weren't damaged. Best of luck in the repair!

BMWDEMON · 03-20-2009, 08:09 AM

Damn! Glad that you are OK...car can be fixed...

Big Windy · 03-20-2009, 08:25 AM

wow! glad you are okay. those pics are awesome. i like the hood design/imprint. airbags didn't deploy, right?

amgthis · 03-20-2009, 09:14 AM

Luckily it didn't go thru the windshield, and more importantly you aren't hurt!

gixxer_kidd · 03-20-2009, 09:30 AM

Glad you're okay. We have lots of deers where I live and I'm always cautious looking out for them.

That really does suck...sorry man! I was cruising backroads this weekend with my GF...and a deer hopped out in front of me. Luckily i was paying close attention and was able to get on the brakes hard!!!

AwesomeM3 · 03-20-2009, 10:41 AM

That sucks...the deer really f'd up your hood. What's the damage under the hood?

I've hit three deer in my lifetime, only one in a BMW. No damage to me, lots of damage to my car...and the deer.

MrAdams · 03-20-2009, 10:50 AM

that looks pretty cool. haha damn deer! good luck with the repair

daltonnnn · 03-20-2009, 10:55 AM

Ouch.... Good thing you are alright.

Is insurance going to cover that? Hopefully so!

lyjw88 · 03-20-2009, 11:34 AM

sorry to hear
but at least the deer didn't get sucked in through kidneys

GL with repair

KANdaddy · 03-20-2009, 11:37 AM

wow! sorry to see...but glad you are ok. Cars can be fixed....dead peeps can't

Griz · 03-20-2009, 11:44 AM

Based on the pictures, I'd say: John= 1, Bambi= 1

drsnooz · 03-20-2009, 11:49 AM

Sucks man! Good thing you're ok. Did the deer survive the blow?

flawless · 03-20-2009, 11:57 AM

Did the dear have insurance?

leeor · 03-20-2009, 12:11 PM

that was a strong as motha FkN deer! hahaha

did ur airbags EXPLODE on you?

tightie · 03-20-2009, 12:12 PM

OUCH

modbargains · 03-20-2009, 12:13 PM

Glad to see that your ok at least. COULD have been worse.

SHADY1 · 03-20-2009, 12:19 PM

Glad your okay guy. Your poor M3

well at least it can be fixed. Once you do get it fixed you might want to get some Dear whistlers. I put some on my M3 just in case because there are some pretty big deer out here on the back roads. here is a pic of mine they are a little hard to see but one of them is located at the main air intake driver side then you will see the other one on the passenger side the things in the middle are police laser gun jammers not them

. Good luck with getting your M3 repaired once again.

in germany they charge you 250 euro per deer that you kill if there is a sign on the road warning of deer/animals in the area. like the damage to your bmw isn't enough??

sgar0777 · 03-20-2009, 12:41 PM

Jeez, and you just put your parts on... Sorry to hear that. Georgia is notorious for our deer population. Generally I am not a fan of hunting, but this makes it seem much, much better. I guess you won't be around Sunday...
