Wait WHAT?!?!!

How'd they steal it at a car wash. Details please!

I'll be on the lookout in case they drive down here to socal. Any mods that distinguish the car?

Damn... that sux...

I'll keep an eye out for blue IS300 with the plates your described... but any mods to make it more identifyable will help.

A common tactic for thieves to target women... they wait for you to step out your car. Ladies, do not leave your purse, keys in the car while you gas up or go for car wash.

Thieves will sneak in the passenger and lock you out then drive off with your car. Most women leave the purse in the car as the step out. There was a segment on the news regarding this type of thievery. They can also ****** your purse from the passenger side if you leave it in the car.

If you need to step out, take your car keys and lock your door. Then gas your car...

Sorry to hear....Can you tell us how this happened so this won't happen to anyone else? I'll text our fellow CL member who lives in Alameda to be on the lookout if it's still in town.

WOW! Sorry to hear about your loss. I'd check craigslist to see if your parts come up for sale there also. Hope they get it back before anything can be stripped.
