Default Baby Deer vs IS350
So last night I was driving on a lonely stretch of road and bunch of deers are just sitting on the road like everything is all good. I see them and come to a complete stop to make sure those idiots dont try anything funny.

Anyways, I let go of the brake and cruise along and all of a sudden a baby deer comes running out of the wood right into my car. I must have been going a good 10 mph at this point...

Scroll down for the conclusion of this amazing story...

....

ALMOST THERE!

....

...

....

The baby deer went flying a good 15 feet and rolled like 4 times and struggled to get back up for 5 minutes. Then it gets up and runs away...

Damages to the IS? NONE! Not even a scuff mark
Damages to deer? Brain damage....

LOL wow, the IS are deer friendly. I have been driving through Mulholland/Malibu canyons at night and came across a deer. Was able to stop in time though, because I was able to see it from AFS FTW.

Potentially dangerous. Deer is dead somewhere probably or coyote meal at best.

Well I guess the IS is now responsible for deer evolution.

I think its probably fine roaming around some place...The area where I encountered the deer is a heavily urban area right next to the George Washington Bridge. I was actually surprised to encounter it in that area...

I live in deer country too, often see them in my backyard where the natural predators rarely go.
