I guess us MT guys weren't being too paranoid then sleeping inside our trailers with the cars.
It makes me sick to read threads like this, hopefully someone who knows the guys who did it come forward or someone slips and gets caught!

Re: PLEASE HELP LOOK FOR MY CAR! K20 Black EK RENTON KENT AREA
Hey guys sorry I haven't been updating you guys but the car was found yesterday at around 7am in Seattle by east Marginal way. I took some pics of it and will post them later. It just kills me to think that my car was treated this way. I'm surprised that they didn't take every part on the car. I was expecting it completely stripped. They left both fenders, hood, rear bumper, headlights, and ALL interior. Ill post pics of the car in a little while just trying to get my mind of off things, On another note please guys the "honda game" is really getting bad now, I have heard of 2 other cars stolen already a few hours after our car was stolen do everything you can to prevent it, ecu out everytime, alarm on high sensitivity, kill switches, fuses out, steering wheel locks, clutch locks whatever it takes, im getting tired of thieves, take the extra time by locking up and double checking everything, if you forgot your steering wheel lock somewhere buy another one from walmart for 20 dollars and return it the next day if you have to. Thanks for all the support guys I really appreciate people like you guys!

glad you found your car......not glad that you were so quick to point a finger that you sent the police to one of my best friends shop....they had 12 officers with K9 and swat pull us out of the shop by gun point, infront of everybody...even put everyone in the shop in cuffs...the owner has never been in cuffs before this...my other friend who also works there was cuffed...we were interagated all the while they went through the whole shop and vinned every car, every swap, rifled through everything, all while calling us peices of **** and car thiefs....every other bussiness that is in the complex is just watching and taking pics for their goddamn facebook...then all the info comes back and everything comes back clean...then finally after 20-30 mins of being in cuffs the cops say our bad, this guy from another state just wasted our time...He told them his car was in the shop being stripped right now...whole ****ed up thing is I live 3 hours away from him, and I don't even know him...so I drove 3 hours randomly on a monday night with my friends, stole his car, drove it back to where I live, then drove it another hour south to my friends shop, stripped it, then trailerd it all the way back
thanks a ****ing lot you have helped out my life so much, and cant even get an apology...I feel like a peice of **** for what I basically put my friends through...good people...people that don't have records....Never been through a situation like this before...hope I never do again

Wow what a douche bag, accusing innocent people and ruining a good shops name all because "he thought they stole his car", without even getting the facts straight.

i heard something about that...apparently he got a tip from someone stating they saw his parts down there...he called the shop owner who was uncooperative...then he did what anyone in his situation would have done...called the police...hard to fault a guy for that

A place (residence or business) can be raided on heresay. My house was raided over a laptop that I didn't even know was stolen from my old work, just because one of the guys there absolutely hated me and told the police he had seen it at my house, however he had never even been in it. Just him saying that was enough to allow them to get a search warrant and come in to tear everything apart over a $600 computer that I had no knowledge even existed.
The best part was when the officer told me I seemed nervous - I told him "You would be too if you had a cop telling you you were lying to him when you were telling the truth". After threatening to kick in the door"(I wasnt at home when they called me to go in) and telling me I was flat out lying over the phone when I had to ask what this search warrant was for and was in complete amazement someone pegged me a thief, I lost a lot of trust in the law/police officers for a while. They jumped straight to conclusions, because some old ****er who I told to lay off the oxycontin said I was some punkass kid when I wasnt. They believed a drug addict, just because he was old as dirt.
I can see where toker is coming from and if it did happen to him and his friends he has every right to be pissed off about it. I don't know him personally, but he's been nothing but helpful to me whenever I've needed any information and gave me a screaming deal on a block (that is legit, as I checked the vin prior to buying it) when I was in a pinch. Hell, if he was a theif,chances are he wouldn't have let my random friends he'd never met or talked to go to his house to pick it up - and he threw in a TON of parts I later found out I needed with the block too! (Youre a K series savior man! Thanks again!)
I know getting a car stolen sucks horribly, but before pointing fingers solid evidence needs to be had. I'm sure you didn't mean for it to go that length, but some hard up for a news story cops obviously over reacted....
Your car was extremely clean, loved the wheels - hopefully the real theifs get caught soon.

There is a difference between a police officer serving a search warrant (probable cause) and the SWAT team showing up. There is a threat assessment that is conducted before every search warrant is served, and based upon that SWAT is called. If SWAT did serve the search warrant, the place/persons have been on the radar for a while, and there is/was probable cause to believe that something besides a 7 thousand dollar Honda civic was in there.
Not trying to sound like a dick, but that’s the way it works. I know firsthand.

Good point, I guess I kind of overlooked the whole "swat" accusation - and just remembered what I went through and how much BS it was.

Re: PLEASE HELP LOOK FOR MY CAR! K20 Black EK RENTON KENT AREA
this guy, never once called the shop...he only called me...no bullshit on this story...I could have the others chime in no problem....every single bit was true...you wanna call me a liar, whatever...you werent there...me, travis, and derek were there....this was straight bullshit....the police handled it like a kidnapping...I was like WTF all this over a ****ing car...calvin only called me, I told him he was more than free to come look at the shop, my house, wherever else he wanted to...he still wont take my calls or text me....**** him....calvin you are a bitch...flat out....all myself, and my friends want is an apology....after I told him what happened he pretty much laughed and said he thinks I still have it and had something to do with it...plus the boys and the shop look like pieces of **** now everyday they come to work and everyone else in the complex thinks they criminals, big boss style...my friend derek has never once had a gun pulled out on him or been in cuffs, until that day...why would I make a lie like this, what benefit do I get out of saying the cops pulled guns on us????
I'm also glad you guys have so much first hand knowledge and weren't even there on the scene...not one person said a word about a search warrant...There was no warrant...but then again you guys know all the details so I'm sure I don't need to waste anymore of my time typing
