Default Close call for ITR

Well looks like i got away. This morning I wake up to head out to work and I see my hood popped open then think whether or not i opened it for some reason. I walk closer and see inside my car with footprints all over the interior. So yeah someone tried to steal my car. The theives disconnected my negative terminal and bent the hell outta my clutch because of my autolock. I think something spooked them so they gave up and ran. When the cop came to take the report, he said another car similar to mine was stolen about a block away. Looks like I got lucky this time.

-James

close call indeed! Be wary as everyone as already said. I remember them trying once in the black ITR and then trying again a few days later...lucky for me they never got it running.

so much for black being stealth!

if you don't already live in an apt./house with one, you should a) move to one that does, or b) sell it.

good luck type goch and be *extra* cautious!
