What have you hit with your NSX?

I hate to say it, but I can now add porcupine to the list.

It bounced off the lower front bumper.
Saw it at 80 km/hr in the dark, braked hard - impact speed 40 km/hr?
Animal lived, but lower and upper front bumper damaged (insurance company will replace both with OEM parts, no repairs).

Some days...
 
I hit a dead armadillo the other day at 80mph, bang bang bang underneath. EZ-lip front spoiler survived it, no other damage done. Made a hell of a noise though!

Hit a deer around 40 mph. Car ended up totaled. Deer ended up inside the car in my wife's lap... dead.

Not something I want to experience again.

A squirrel!!! Poor guy/girl. Why is that squirrels that make it across the street when you approach them, suddenly run back into the street only to be hit?

A concrete wall.

I can vouch for that hit, and of course the wall won!!!!

A small bird once flew right in front of my car at a height of only 1 to 2 feet above the road surface. It seemed like I had run over it for sure, but I felt and heard nothing. A few weeks later I smelled an awful smell while washing my car. The bird had been sucked thru the the opening on the air dam and become wedged against the radiator.

This is what my nightmares are made of, shit... glad u guys were okay too
 
Around a million tiny rocks as my front end and windshield can attest to. I have hit my undercarriage with a couple of rocks that I could not avoid but no damage other than some scraches. I also hit 175 on a very desolate road in Nevada.:biggrin:

with all due respect to the scenario played out here, but this is a GREAT vintage photo from 1999. Please consider posting this up in the "NSXs in the wild" thread about vintage pictures from way back.

glad your were okay.
