Default Car Thieves Prowling Again in Virginia...be careful

Hey wassup guys..just wanted to let you know that Car theft is happening again. Just recently 2 of my friends teg got stolen. One was black gsr with jdm front stolen from Fair Oaks Mall, the other was a Audi Blue color integra ls with turbo taken from centreville area...just wanted to warn you guys about this sad sad news. My last car got stolen from me and I hate to think that it's happening to anybody. Just watch where u leave your car. That's all. If you have a garage...park it in the garage.

Audi blue with turbo...Louis, was that one of the "Dragwerks" (spelling?) cars that came out to the dyno day that I saw you at? It had gold wheels and stickers on it, absolutely beautiful. A shame anyway, but if it's the car I'm thinking of, double shame.

The thieves usually steal more cars because the weather is so cold outside.
Once you leave the car and go inside someplace warm, thieves is jacking
the cars while you may not want to go outside because it too cold. It happen
to owners of thier cars got stolen overnight while they were sleeping during
very extreme cold weather. Just some thoughs. I be looking out for thieves.

Umm... yeah, you should probably be worried. With the VIN he can get an unscrupulous Honda/Acura employee to cut him a key to your car. Even if your car is immobilized the key will still unlock the door, and unlock the steering column. I would ask why he wants the VIN, and tell him he can come see the car in person and you'll show him a carfax if that's what he wants to check on.

I dont know how you expect to park your cars all over the place including malls and not expect them to go missing... thieves arent prowling again... they are always prowling, until they get caught. Then its a 6 month ciesta for them...prior to resuming theft.

work, school, home...fine...but malls is just asking for it. thats like a 6 ft 110 lb wet behind the ears scrawny guy walking into a max security prison. you're really asking for it. either way, hope things work out with catching the thieves...
