I have hit many animals in my time. This car, by far, fares the worst. The car explodes upon contact with anything, and becomes undriveable. First I hit a deer at 50mph and the fender, headlight, and a bunch of stuff from inside the engine bay exploded all over the road, and it was leaking fluids. The hood was dented up. This is abnormal, usually things get pushed/bent in, but this is on another level. The car was undriveable. I hit a racoon at 55mph and it broke off the front bumper and came up into the engine compartment and bent important structural components, doing $2500 in damage. FROM A RACOON!! Things were leaking out of the car and was again undriveable. This brings me to my most recent complaint. I hit a squirrel and 12 inches of the front bumper lip and the engine's splash guard ripped off. FROM A SQUIRREL!!! I blame part of it on the fact that the car is so low, you can't run over anything, not even a squirrel, it all makes contact with the body. The body pieces themselves and their connections break apart like it's being held together with Elmer's glue.
