If they want it bad enough, they'll take it. Always garage it, and leave it parked in a high foot traffic zone.

sorry to hear, hope u get it back or find it. those thieves gonna pay.

I agree with civic si and yea 2jz, it might have been someone u know or they were following u and waited for an opportunity. always park it in the garage and get those wheel/tire locks. if they tow it, it will make a loud sound im sure. dam i gotta invest in a tracking device.

How do they get the car started without the electronic keys? I've always wondered this...

Sorry to hear it but depending on length of time it's been gone, prob. chopped up into parts and sold off already if pros took it...who knows...and you prob. don't want it back anyway...hopefully, you'll get enough to buy another one (at today's prices) and start over.

Sorry to hear this. I had a car stolen a few years ago, major bummer. Insurance took care of me though and I ended up with a newer year of the same car! Make sure they pay you full market value AND taxes for the car. Mine was a S2000 stolen off the street in San Francisco, same deal, tow truck.

I have a feeling your car is now on a boat to some other country for sale.

That's effed up but why did you leave the F in the drive way anyway? I wouldn't even leave my 350 overnight.

Oh my that's terrible, I can't believe people stole an F. There's one I see parked out in the open in my area all the time, never thought anyone would considering taking an F. They must have been watching it if it was in the driveway for a while.
