Default Stolen Civic

My car's gone

If any h-t member in or around San Antonio, Tx see it please let me know. *** I'll even go ahead and give a reward, I just want my fken car back. Seriously thieves will steal anything these days, all it was was a little sohc with a fked up carbon fiber hood. Just glad I hadnt bought more stuff for my turbo setup and that it only cost me $1000 at an auction. Anyways here it is:

Sorry for your loss bro..
I've had my nice ricer jacked too.. I know how it feels.. Police were able to recover a bare stripped chassis, and I felt like dropping an atom bomb in the neighborhood it was found in (ghetto)
But.. life goes on..
Anyway.. you should be able to pick things up again.. life goes on, right ?
Really curious, what level of security did you have on your car ?
Good luck..

Didnt have any security whatsoever, Ive heard of people getting jacked but never really thought it would happen to me...feels fken horrible to be honest. And yea life goes on, Ive pretty much conceded already that my car will either not be found or found with a bare stripped chasis like yours was. Have a little 3.4L Camaro that I was going to drive while I installed my turbo on my Honda. Guess I'll have to ride in that for a while now, and maybe look around for another Honda.

Thanks to everyone else as well for their support, and to Texas members for looking out. Im expecting the worst but we'll see what happens. Oh and that hole in the hood was my custom made ram air haha, nah seriously some pick up backed up into me and beat the **** out of my hood. Surprisingly bumper and grill were spared, I was planning on getting a new hood today too.

Was going to wait a while before looking for a new car, but I was looking at the cars that are going to be auctioned tomorrow and I might just have to check it out. 3 Del Sols, 2 GS-Rs, 2 LSs, and a 00' EX. Plus some dxs and lxs which Im really not interested in:

1998 Acura Integra Gs-r
1994 Acura Integra Gs-r
1995 Acura Integra LS
1993 Civic Del Sol S
2000 Civic Ex
1994 Civic Del Sol Si
1991 Integra LS
1996 Civic Del Sol S

Not going to go determined to buy a car or anything, but if an opportunity arises I might have to ****** one of these up. Im very interested in the GS-Rs. I got the stolen car for $1000 from this same auction site so who knows maybe I can pick up a gsr for under 2k. Ironically though most of these cars I listed have been recovered stolen and not reclaimed which makes me feel kind of bad if I were to pick one of these up.

RECOVERED.

I work at a Pizza Hut so I told my manager to tell the delivery drivers to look out for it when theyre driving and one of them ended up spotting it in the back of an apartment complex.Front and back seats, SI gauge cluster, tach, stereo, and black panel in front of stereo all gone...pretty lucky to be honest. They either had plans to strip some more stuff later on or they were simply going after cosmetic ****. Are the seats I used to have SI seats or something? Maybe they wanted SI stuff for their car although they did leave behind the SI shift ****. My old seats had like a hole in the headrest on the top of the seat, dont know if theyre SI seats though...bad pics but theyre the best view I got of my old seats:





I always assumed they were regular seats, but I picked some up at a junkyard right now and they dont have that little hole on the headrest...which got me wondering that maybe my old ones were SI ones and that the person who stole my car was after SI stuff.

Congrats on the recovery!

I know it probably feels bittersweet right now, but it will get better. Replace the parts you need to replace and get yourself an alarm.

Glad to hear you had a happy ending. I was just about to come in here and mention my car was stolen and recovered with minimal parts missing, so your hopes could be raised a little bit.

consider yourself a minority in the honda world. you got you car jacked, still have a motor, wheels.. hell everything but a dash pretty much. my old EF was stolen and i had the complete JDM front end and jdm gsr in it and when they found it there was a shell... like with most stories on here. get an alarm asap and keep the project going
