      I bought one that is a Deer. It wards off other deer.

      Absolutely no one ever looks up and notices him there.
      So far he has done his job admirably.

          Thanks everyone for the well wishes, yeah I actually feel really lucky and there are a lot more G6's out there My only concern now is once it gets fixed how it runs and how this will effect the resale value (I have only had it a year and a few months) so plenty to still payoff. This is my third incident with a deer. 10 years ago a deer ran onto the road and dented my hood (looked like an ass print) and then broke my side mirror. About 5 years ago there was a pack of deer on the highway at night and I swerved and spun into the median without any damage...So I figure another 5 years and I am due again...

          Maybe I should invest in a bucktoothed deer mascot....

                yah all but one I would swerve for. I would rather spin out then hit a bear, elk or skunk (cause of the stench)

                  That blows man, i had a similar accident like that, it involved my (former car) Grand Prix, a Deer, my stupid Polish friend, a truck, snow,3am in Nowhere vermont, a dead flashlight a bottle of Jack Daniels and a Blow up doll!!!

                  (haha JK about the jack daniels and the Blow up doll) but seriously good luck to you man, your electronics might be fucked up, mine were for years even after it got fixed 6 times in a 3 yr period unless you get the whole front end rewired

                    Do you think the electronics were messed up because they don't know everything that's broken so they don't fix everything?

                      Wiring issues are a bitch. One teeny wire could cause alot of issues.

                        Just got off the phone with repair shop...Apparentely Progressive only gave them enough to fix with aftermarket parts, but according to the guy on the phone he is going to "take care of me" and order GM parts instead and they will cover the difference. So far so good...Also about 2 weeks to repair he is estimating so we'll see...

                            thing about wiring is it might not look damaged, but one little chafe down to the conductor against some metal will fuck shit up, thats what happened to my grand prix. it was fine for 3 weeks after my accident but the traction control and anti lock brakes started failing and shutting off randomly and eventually permanently. came to find out, it wasent grounded properly after my wreak and a little cut in the wire for the TCS was rubbin against the frame. that killed the system

                            long story shot, make sure the wiring gets checked

                              I thought my deer hit was bad! That sux man.

                              After I got mine back from the shop the ac system started making a rattling sound and still is.

                                So as of Monday it will be officially 3 weeks without my car...I have been parading around in a mini-van since and it is seriously driving me nuts. The really irriating part is I called last week and they said "it will be done early next week". So I wait until Wednesday and call for an update and they tell me they needed to replace a hose and they expect it done Thursday afternoon. Then I get a call from them Thursday and they tell me the part took longer than they thought and it would be in this morning and I should have it ready by now. So I call a few minutes ago as its getting late and they tell me "oh everything is basically together but we don't have a Tech around so maybe it will be done on Tuesday". Seriously?? Talk about frusterating, plus I have some new G6 mats and carbon dart overlays that have just been sitting in my livingroom for a few days now reminding me.....Rant completed.
