Sorry for your loss -
It is ridiculous when people of today's modern society cannot have at least the minimal respect of other's property and not fuck with what is not theirs. And it sucks to have something nice, yet constantly worry about some asshole doing something out of spite (stealing the car, parts from, dents, keying, etc) because they don't have something that someone else does. What ever happened to getting a fucking job and working towards a goal (what ever your object of desire is)? Is it because its not instantaneous? Because it takes more than an hour?
For a car that was built in such low numbers and comes equip with a factory alarm (usually making it a harder target) why the (seemingly) sudden increase in thefts? It seems since dec or jan, every week or so there is a thread here or on SF about someone's car being stolen (especially in CA). And then just last week someone comes on asking how to disable the factory alarm and within the hour there is a detailed post on "how to". (

Do we want to make it easier for our cars to be stolen? Sorry for the rant - but I am sick and tired of seeing people's cars stolen. And with the $$ I have spent on just the drivetrain, you can bet your ass there is an aftermarket alarm protecting it as well as multiple power cut-off switches. I cannot stand being paranoid about this kind of stuff - it pains me to see honest people getting ramrodded by thieves out in front of their own homes.
Fucking ridiculous. /rant.
Sorry about your loss.
