Dude I made an account just to comment on this XD

I actually had two birds fly straight into my windshield, one of them missed my car by an inch as he managed to go up at the last second.

Is your car white?

Last friday another weird thing happened , I was going to my friend's house to pick him up and travel to another country and a bird flew into the car , while I was going 60 kph , and his head hit the head rest so he died !

These things never happened to me on my other car , so what do you think ? Bad luck ? Or weird car aerodynamics ?

First I would like to welcome you in the club and I hope you enjoy .

And I do have a white is350 , do you think the birds thing is color related ? ( maybe they like white)
Btw did you hit the second bird ?

Not sure about the reasons for the bird's tragedy. But I did feel a have weird experience with the aerodynamics of the car. When the back door winder on the driver seat was the only one that was opened, I heard a powerful droning. And I felt a strong suction from the air around my head. Maybe in certain condition( speed, combination of opened window) the air flow would do funny things in this car.
