They jacked your car at the movie theater? That's cold hearted, not to mention pretty professional. Not many people would boost a car in a crowded spot like that. They must have known what they were doing.

I hope you had full coverage. :(

It happens in atlanta at the theaters more than you'd think.

Sorry to hear about that man. Did you have a swapped motor or anything?

damn this is such bull**** that our 240s keep on getting stolen.

everyone should take notice and install some form of protection, either an alarm or a kill switch or a raging pitbull...

i feel your pain, that sucks so much:mad:

Yea, I gotta put a kill switch in my car. nothign to steal in the inside, so probably not the expense of an alarm, but it is the car itself that is "valuble" you will be able to hear the exhaust and bov...

As nice as an S15 setup would be, I don't think i'd like the risk of it getting stolen. People jizz their pants when they see S15 headlights. I'm just finishing my sr swap and i'm hoping nobody decides to jack my car by seeing the 3" exhaust and FMIC.

im sorry to hear that. if you really think about it stealing your car at the movie theater cant be that hard. they know they have over an hour and a half to do it, and if they act like they know what they are doing people arent going to be very skeptical. it sucks, but thats life with an eye-catching car..

Sorry to hear that, we need to strap are cars down like a prison.Its as easy as hooking up a hidden switch to the ignition 12volts, starter wire, or the 12v constant wires at the steering comlumn.

Cut the wires as far back towards the fuse box (away from the column) as possible, run each side of the wire to somewhere like under the driver seat and hook it up to a 30amp on/off switch. Make sure to use a 10-14 gauge wire though. DOnt wanna burn up the wires or blow fuses!!

I wonder if it's a fag named Chris Gumpas...that ****ing scammer. He lives in San Diego on 1182 Isla De La Gaita (some street). Check his place, I wouldn't put it past that guy.
