He didn't avoid nothing. He wasn't driving fast.

deff the road...when you ride on coilovers or a stiff suspension with soft dampers thats how your car bounces when you hit small dips in the road

Correct he didn't avoid not hitting the deer.

I don't often speak in paradoxes, but when I do I don't.

It was his natural reaction and a good one at that. Most people can't react that fast. When I had a racoon come across my front end I moved over to the middle instantly so it could go underneath my car (I didn't see it fast enough to know it was a FAT one and would end up getting stuck)

I dont know why you guys are taking that away from Gushi and the car. Hes not going slow, and you can see his reaction, braking the car to avoid hitting the deer And, slow or fast, it would still be a damaged FR-S which I am sure none of us want to see

After watching it several times over and it looks like the road. I've had coilovers in my GSR and don't remember it bouncing like that. Then again, it's just for a commercial shoot so the settings are probably standard and were put in place just to give the car a more aggressive stance by lowering it a bit.

Aside from PETA, I would actually would like to see how well a FR-S holds up to damage. I don't think the NHSTA and IIHS crash tests have been conducted yet.

Anyone with half a brain would know that the deer was obviously paid by Toyota Marketing to make the FR-S look good. Only complete rubes would believe that a deer came out of nowhere and did a flying kick-leap past a new car on accident.

It's so simple!
