I picked up my M3 convertiable tonight from Dinan, I dropped it
off a couple days ago to have them add a few accents put on the
car, Carbon Fiber, engine tune, etc. The Car looked great,
then BAM hit a fucking deer 2 miles from my house!!! So
couldn't even enjoy the work I had done.
I've had the car for about 2 months now, 2013 with only 6000
miles, it was pristine! Now it's not.... anyway I had
a sleep study scheduled for tonight, I had to cancel that, here's a
picture of the car about a month ago and of course tonight

Hey - call me a namby-pamby if you like, but why is everybody
suddenly blaming the deer? WE took away their land. The existance
of deer is no reason for no gun control. Sorry this is WAY off
topic and I wasn't going to post anything, but readers should know
that there are other opinions out there.Accidents happen. Matt
thank goodness you're ok!
You definitely earned a sweet car like that Matt -- sorry to see
that you hit a deer tonight. Thanks for still getting that
newsletter out at a reasonable hour.
We had a Chrysler New Yorker, built like a tank, when I was a
kid. A moderately sized doe hit the driver's door at full speed,
rolled over the windshield and kept running, leaving a 3' x 1' x 9"
(deep) dent. Like a sledgehammer.
thx, I'm fine, that's what my wife and neighbors were saying
too, at least you didn't get hurt.
The thing is, I'm 44 years old, I've never had one accident in
my life! Never, perfect driving record. anyway guess was time
to hit something, anyway no way I could have avoided it, I'm a
great driver, literally there was a ton of traffic, there was a car
two car lengths in front of me and behind me, and all off a sudden
it was there, didn't see it on the side of the road.
Unreal!

yeah no one blamed the deer, I simply blamed bad luck, I just picked up the car tonight and that happened.
otherwise lack of predators (no wolfs), which causes over population, along with less land for them, things like this are inevitable.

Those deer are a menace where I live too - nailed one a few years ago that wrote off the car.
Sorry about your loss. Hope you are OK.

Now you can crash without the pressure of maintaining the record
