Default Stolen, stripped and abandoned 94-97 GSR sighted in Bronx near yankee stadium. Is this your car?

On saturday night I took the D train uptown to hang out with my friend. As I was walking to her house I saw a GSR that was stripped. The airbags, headlights, bumper lenses, engine, rims and spoiler were gone. at the sight of this my heart broke. I was gonna look under the car for the motor but I concluded that the engine was gone since the front half of the car sat so high. It also was resting on 4 donut spare tires. Spoiler was missing. The entire cloth interior was there though. It also had NY plates on it. I feel bad for the owner of the car.

I wish I had all my friends there with me so that I can show them why I never park my car on the street. They would have been able to see firsthand the evidence of what happens to stolen Integras. Maybe'd they'd complain less when I dont take my car to certain places.

If anyone in the NY state area has lost a green Integra.....call the police.

Ohh by the way and the car was parked in a residential neighborhood a few paces away from the train station.

Residential neighborhood + NYC = stolen cars

They are being stripped inside people's garages. Watch it when in those NYC resedential areas with garages, your car can be stolen towed by another car or even PUSHED into someones garage. be careful, the looks of these neighborhoods are decieving.

Did your front windshield sticker say just Profile? or LowProfile? I know some guys from that crew. I been to fizz, ultima and all those local NYC speedshops before, but lately I haven't driven my Teg much, I usually drive it on weekends cuz I spend most of my time in manhattan: read, my main mode of transportation is with the MTA

Sorry to hear about the loss though....it really sucks.

flex97itr. Humm I dunno if I can handle the sight of many stripped GSR's ITR's at once.

If I wanted to take some stuff from that GSR that I saw, I'm sure there were plenty of parts that I could get. Again, I will not disclose the exact location of the vehicle....I dont want anyone from HT flocking to the carcass of that GSR.

The neighborhood I was in didnt really have any private houses. The car was parked near a park on one side of the street and with a whole line of apartment buildings on the other side of the street.

Fizz??? Holy **** thanks guys. The first week I got my GSR a friend and I got into a little race with a silver Subaru 2.5 RS. All i saw on his car was the sport exhaust. Well to make the story short we were dead even past speeds of 120 then i got to my exit and I got scared(hey it was the first week) so i hit the breaks found out how loose the rear gets when you unload the weight and all i saw around his back licence plate was fizz tuned. Is this the same place???
