Any more details?

Where was it stolen from?

You sure you didn't get towed?

 

Stolen from my spot in my underground garage in Redondo Beach (South Bay LA), stolen between 5.30 SUNDAY May 2, and 6.30am Mon May 3.

Shattered glass on driver side.

 

Oh, no! So sorry to hear... I'll hold that 16G kit for when you (hopefully) get it back!

This is why we can't have nice things

 

Man, that really, really sucks.

 

Bummer... Hope you get it back in one piece and in good condition.

On a side note... I thought these cars were "relatively" difficult to steal? Something about needing the chip in the key and the without it prevents the car from starting even if hot-wired?

 

Agree - really, really sorry.

 

Very sorry to hear this, hope you find it quick!

 

If you have comprehensive insurance, I hope they lose control of the two-wheel drive with all of that power, hit a tree, spend a night in the hospital, and wind up in jail. You're better off not getting the car back once it's stolen. Good luck either way.

 

wow, I was told these cars are imposible to hot wire, with all of the security built in. That sucks, sorry to hear it.

 

Probably a silly question, but any chance that your underground garage (or maybe a local business) has a security camera?

Also - how easy is it to remove the wrap if the thug wants to swap the color real quick? Will he even know it's wrapped?

Hope it works out - if my car gets stolen I never want to see it again. I'll just take the check and start over.

 

Sorry to hear about the theft...but agree with the guys above...isn't this car supposed to be very hard to steal? I would have imagined they would need a tow truck...but yet you're saying it was in an underground parking lot and the glass was shattered...for the amt of money it costs to program the key, it better be theft proof!

 

I have had this happen to me in Huntington Beach, CA. A real bummer.

 

Man i am realy sorry,that SUKS.I just can't undestand why this people do that.You were so exated because of the wrap up and so on.It's a very nice car and you a good sport man.
I hope you get it back nice and in one pice.

 

F-ing sucks! Sorry to hear it...
