Get a call from local Police Department informing me that a car Theif was arrested and in his pocket was a paper with my Vin and Tag number! Tell me that I should secure my car and keep close watch on it. He was let out on bail. \

This really is upsetting b/c I really do not drive the car that much and never take it anywhere for it to sit for a long period of time. Lojack, a better alarm, and some other things will go in this week!

I never thought I would looking at a situation when I become a stat about theft. Theives can kiss my a@$!!!

Damn we should all call honda and complain because these people are getting hookups on the keys for these cars.

 

SmitDog,

I didn't think it would happen to me either but my car did get stolen 9/12/02, but got it back...LoJack NEVER let your guard down. I don't ever leave my car out in the street overnight anymore.

 

This is horrible....... yes they are getting connections that are not helping at all.

 

How do they get these things? Damn theives. It looks like they are stocking up during the winter

 

Hey steve,
Let me be the first to say that I am not going to hang out with you anymore.
for real though. ... makes me wonder if I too am being sought out... My alarm has been set off almost everynight for a week.

 

Steve.....I am sorry to hear...don't let her out of your sight.....

 

GET HIS NAME AND ADDRESS!!!!

...and if anything happens to your car, you'll know who to take it out on!

Or just get him before anything happens. Maybe beat him 'til he rats out all of his theiving bastard cohorts.

Get a Baseball Bat and sit in the Bushes

 

Did/are the police investigating how & why he had your information? I sure think it should be further investigated.

Die thieves Die

Victor

 

I will ask more info Monday. The person was arrested for something and i think car theft related. Released on bail of course he said. Told me to keep a eye on it. Like I dont do that anyway..........

Just the Vin and tag issue. Makes feel someone is out to get you.
Cant have a R and just enjoy it, haters or theives want to ruin the fun.

Marc --- who was struck by credit card theives last weekend

 

I like Mike M's idea, but....get a paintball gun, freeze the "*****" and be ready to open fire on the bitch *** theives. Best way to go. they wont die, they wont get critically injured, but it sure as hell will hurt.

 

Mike's idea is good. Paint ball idea is good too. But with my m4 custom rifle i'll sit 500 meters away. About 5 foot ball field and take him out. I love army for teaching me the skills!!! Just kidding.
seriously, its almost like we are waiting to get our R stolen

 

Don't go to sleep at late at night, this is where thieves strike next at late night while you sleep! I know this is hard to stay awake, this is what I always do, stay awake and watch out the window all the damn time. I encountered thieves in Springfield, this asian dudes in 1995 white civic coupe with 99 alloy civic si wheel, lowered, they stole everything from 1999 ebp civic si. Keep your eyes out, they are lurking in Springfield. Always remember, always check any drivers behind you if they following you home from work or anyplace where you came back, use diffrent routes to your home. If any silimar routes you take on the way home, they will know where you live locally. But damn, thieves are ****** unavoidable! Buy a snake, put in your car, I don't think they dare to sit in the car for a ****** second, probably scream and run out the car. Smit, good thing that thieve got caught but he out now, keep your eyes on your car as much as you can. I'll pray that he doen't get your type r! Thieves will die if only I was there with you Smit!

 

man it seems like the stolen ones are from guys that barely drive their automobiles

 

Not sure.......

 

Store inside and move to a small hick town. I do both.

 

like Victor said, too close to home.

How in the hell did they get your VIN?

 

Its so fugged up when I had to go get a new key they didn't even ask for my ID just my vin.

So now my bankers buisness card sit there. welsfargo is my vin security

 

Your LoJack ain't worth **** if they are good.

 

Dude, that is crazy..again..wayy to close to home.

do you park it anywhere in the open? (like the dealership)
is your VIN on the windshield covered? (it should be)
rest assured this guy has friends...take off a wheel and chain it to the house or something.

Ahhhh...I actually had a dude flag me down in his neighborhood about 8 months back. He showed me his backyard (nothing but LS/Vtec's sitting all over the place). He offered me one for $700 Thing is...his neighbor was a county cop. The guy disappeared a couple of months ago...

 

I dont know?? I really take the car nowhere and have it sit without me being able to see it in plain veiw. Only place could of been up to my car to see the vin is at my work, or at a track event I quess. Just sucks knowing in this very nice part of town I live in but yet someone is out to get my car.

 

Call your local acura dealer(s), tell them what happened and ask them to call you before they make a key for anyone. Offer to set up a password that someone must say before they will cut the key. This way you attempt to protect yourself, AND there will be potential liability from the dealer if your car does get stolen with a key. I'm sure that the part of the vin necessary to know for key cutting is the last few digits, you might want to consider neatly taping over the last few numbers in the vin with some sort of tape.
