LIKE IT ****EN SAYS !!! sorry, but ****

so last night i come home at around 830 or so and park the car. put the headunit on the side compartment and NOT put on the club (i guess i trusted my street to much, wont make that mistake again). my brother who just recently is on leave from the navy in hawaii said he was gonna take my car out at around 10 or so, but decided not to. he later went jogging and did last see the car around midnight. this morning i wake up to go to school and walked outside at 645 and find the car NOT THERE. so i called my brother and said, are you sure you didnt take the car out. he said he didnt and came out. his first words were HOLY **** IT WAS JUST RIGHT THERE LAST NIGHT.

so if anyone body is socal sees a white '90 240 with the headlights up (bc theyre broken) with an exhuast and crappy paint job, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. i dont know if i should post the license plate or whatever. ill try to post pics... if its really really GONE... its gonna be so hard to replace it :( i tried for months just to find that one stick SE model... :(:(:(:(:(:(:(

Damn man.. good luck finding it. Wish I could do more to help ya.. With the lights being broken, it should stand out a little more, but the plates would probably help to confirm it. If the person who took it had any brains, though, they would ditch those plates as soon as possible. Since there are a good number of Socal people on here, chances are better that someone can help ya.

I had my B16 CRX stolen in 2000. Close to $9000 in mods. 24 hrs later the cops found an almost unrecognizable frame which looked like it came out of a junkyard. That hurt.

i hate to say it, but your car is probably parted out by now. most of the guys that boost cars are professionals, and 2-3 hours after the steal the car is in pieces. but, thats why you pay over $100 a month for insurance ;]

if you only have liability... would the insurance give you some money for the car... or ...... do they just laugh at your face?

I've never laughed in anyone's face. It's just not covered.

And FYI, only a small percentage of cars that get stolen are parted out. Most are actually recovered in repairable condition. Usually it was either stolen for some of the parts(mainly wheels and stereo equipment), or for a quick joy ride. Most vehicle thefts are a crime of opportunity. Those that look for cars to be stripped are usually looking for a particular car(those with the highest demand for parts).

man i live in 626 as well and about a year ago my car got jacked at ballys, i had a civic at the time and my car was found 2 days after, they stole my sterio and thats about it, o yea and they keyed the **** out of my car, i now drive a white 240 that looks kinda like urs except im riding on blacks, but i will definetly keep an eye out, i know how it feels to walk out and not see ur ride. Imagine the same thing happening but after working out...kinda sucks. oh and the worse part is when they find it they will tow it to and charge you for the towing and storage, i paid $300 to get my ****ing car out that was stolen from me. the whole system is ****ed up. But i've learned and my autolock is always on now even if its just in and out of 7/11

Well, that sucks to here, Im up in glendora, will keep an eye out. Maybe only the first few digits of the lic # would be ok, you never know, maybe someone down here will see it.Sux not to have full ins cov. I didnt on my S13, but when i bought this one got full cov and LOJACK, I feel secure, my alarm wasnt worth a $hit. Radio stolen 2 times with it. Good luck, and like i said ill keep an eye out.
