I never thought i would say another bites the dust.
My baby, GONE
It was down in LA getting new piston rings put in, and the head port and polished. After it was done my friend picked it up for me and stored it into his garage. He had to put it outside for a couple nights since he had to store some engines in his garage. Next day, GONE.
the thing is it had 208 hp to the wheels.

Insurance companies are a pain to deal with, but if you do it right you can get some good money.
When my R got wrecked (it was about 7 months old) I got $1000 above MSRP along with money for tax, title, and license fees. I came out at about $27000 when all was said and done. Then I bought the wrecked R back and sold it to someone else for about $2000 profit.

Man...that totally sucks...I'm sorry
Does your insurance company know abou all your mods? You had alot of stuff put into that and i'm sure it took along time. The hell with these thieves man. As if this world could be even more corrupt.

I have a pic of your car on my desk at work. Didn't know it was your car until I went to your website. Sorry for your loss man and I hope a miracle happens and you get it back.
