Have you ever hit an animal with your sports car?

I hit a coyote with my Audi a few years back. It ran out in front and it's head hit the right headlight. Cracked the headlight, and one of the lower grill pieces popped out. The coyote was also cracked.

Hit a rabbit a few weeks ago with the Z. Poor bastard ran right out in front of me and pegged him pretty good. Left a bunch of fur stuck to the front spoiler.

I don't know whether to take this seriously or not...

considering that it's the Kenchan...I think not.

Hit a large female Rottweiler in my BMW 320i... Unfortunately she had already been struck once and was laying in the road with her back to me.. It was night and i didn't see her until it was too late.

I hit an already dead raccoon. Couldn't avoid it. It splattered all over my rear diff. When I got home it was like bacon. Yum.

I hit a raccoon in my Miata.
My car has less than 3" of clearance, so I could actually feel the animal under the floorboards as I ran over it. One of my fog lights was destroyed and the plastic supports for the grille were all cracked and broken, but the doors didn't have a scratch on them.

Ouch. When I ran over the RC-mice I could hear its bones shattering and grinding while feeling it through the steering wheel... it felt like I ran over some larger pebbles.

Deer. Car total. Deer dead. True to form about a deer in the headlights...they don't move!
