Hi guys, just wanted to put the word out that my red 1993 integra Gs-r was stolen tonight in front of the NIKKO Hotel in San Francisco (Ellis & Mason) between 11:34pm - 12:30am. Not sure if this forum has any type of section for message like this, but I figured I'd post here since I've seen other similar ones. The cops told me the recover rate for the city is pretty good, but at this point I'm chalking it up to be stolen....crappy thing is my wallet was in the car as well.

Last seen at Richmond Gas & Food Mart 3701 Cutting Blvd Richmond, CA 94804 three hours later.

<U>Details</U>
LICENSE:3JWR651
VIN:JH4DB2381PS000367
- on the drivers side of the hood there is a mark which looks like BB pellet hit it from underneath. The paint has a circle chip.
- San Jose State Alumni license plate frame.
- The front bumper along where it curves to the side of the car has paint coming off from the braz which use to be on the car.
- On the dash is a brown stuffed lion with a crazy "Albert Einstein" mane
- To the right of the license plate is a small vertical scratch
- The paint on the door handles are quite faded, pretty obvious from the rest of the car
- front part of the roof before the sunroof the paint is starting to fade
- No front license plate
- One of the heater grids on the rear window has a repair patch which is slightly thicker on the drivers side, it's towards the bottom of the window, about a 2 inch long repair
- the tire valve covers are green (costco uses these on their tires)
- on the passenger side near the "VTEC" logo trim there is a car door ding which is pretty big, the trim is painted red like the car
- rear bumper on the passenger side has a noticeable scratch on the passenger side
- the paint is chipping near the rear spoiler along the rear hatchback window frame.
- There are "SCCA ROAD RACING" stickers on both quarter panel windows
- The rear jacket hook on the drivers side has a pine tree air freshener
- The car has roughly 150,000 miles

Other than that is is stock to the bone. I know it's not much to go on but everything I could mentally think of with the car as far as things to look for.

Would love the NORCAL forums help to keep their eyes open for this on EBAY or Craigslist. Not sure where else I should post online?


Not sure what other info I should post here. I'm also hopeful to read other stolen car posts here ended with a recover. Since mine was so cherry stock both interior and exterior I'm sure if it's found it'll be pretty bare

Looks like I'll have to take the bus to work and home for a while until Insurance can give me some sort of settlement. I've never had a car stolen so what do I claim? Can I claim everything that was stolen inside the car as well?

Since it' stock, can you guys give me an idea what might be taken and how long before the cops find it? I have full coverage and I'm in the claims process right now. Can someone tell me the process the insurance company uses to determine how much they will give you? I've got AAA.
Should I call the cops everyday to see if any meter maids have given my car any tickets?






Bigger pics:
Here you can see the mark on the hood and the "SCCA ROAD RACING" sticker on the rear quarter panel window


Here you can see the scratch along the rear bumper, the sticker on the rear hatchback window isn't there anymore

i live in richmond (2nd house) i will keep an eye out for you.

 

i am at the top of cutting very close...

 

as a matter of fact, i seen a red teg like yours except the front end was primered and had hood pins, JUST IN CASE he was at the Arlington Market Liquer store, dont know if they changed parts on the car....he had stock exhaust...
and the guy was white, rough faced not shaven, about 6-1 brown hair brown eyes......

FRONT END was dark grey/blackprimer fendors forward....

 

Hey Bro! thanks for the update did you happen to catch the plates or other things I mentioned which would ID the car?
It would have no front license plate, paint is fading in front of the sunroof. Look for those "SCCA ROAD RACING" stickers in the rear quarter panel windows. If you want PM me your mobile and I can talk to you....It would be stupid for them to using the car as their own. But who knows..Was it this place?

AH MAN!!! I hope that was it. Do you know what day you saw the guy there?

This is terrible man. My car was stolen about 4 blocks away from this location earlier this year. By any chance, did you have GSR blades on this car about a month ago or two? My house mate and I saw a really clean red gsr near stonestown here in SF.

I really hope you recover your car in one piece. Mine was never recovered

 

Was yours stock? Did you have full coverage? Can you tell me how insurance went about giving you a settlement?
I've always had the same wheels as in the picture.

 

PM'd

 

Dude, just read your thread! Geez I guess we're in the same boat. I'm waiting for my insurance to give me a settlement then I'll go get another one, but what a pain to have to look for a replacement for a perfect car in my opinion

I will be calling Richmond Police and SFPD tomorrow to see if there are any updates or parking tickets.

You're right, I just want closure right now even though for me it's been only 8 days.

I've been checking craigslist but not Ebay....

Oh I've put a curse on the thieves and hope throat cancer becomes standard within their families and downs syndrome babies are the only kids they can produce...

forealz.

super mint.

 

Nothing yet guys..I'm going to call Richmond PD tomorrow to see if my car is in any of their tow yards.

At this point if it is found I'm afraid my insurance company will call it a loss and it'll be stuck with a salvage title

 

Good luck

 

BUMP

 

no visuals on my side of town....

 

not to disrespect but certain places in Richmond are pretty ghetto. my cousin from Oak-town got is EF stolen by some Richmond cats, he ID'd them when they drove off. they gave chase but his all motor EF was too quick for his buddy's jetta to keep up. 3hrs later cops found the EF's interior stripped but couldnt get to the motor, the latch was hidden.
good luck and i'll have my cousins look out!

 

Thanks bro, really appreciate it...Well tomorrow night will make 2 weeks where is my car....I feel so violated!

 

goodluck on the car man....

 

wow, what a clean car man. Sorry for your loss. Bump for people to help this guy out

 

BUMP
