Mods. is there a way to copy this thread into the Northeast forum, or do we need to start a new one? I know It's here and in the GS forum but it couldn't hurt to have some extra eyes, just in case people visit there and not here.

Tone, most of my highway guys who run the NY area have laptops in their trucks and so I sent pics of your car to them to be on the lookout. The one's who didn't get pics of your car have the tag number. If that car show up anywhere on the highway, I'm sure that one of us truckers is sure to spot it. My friends will continue to spread the word to their friends and so on and they all have instructions to stop your car at all costs, with minimum damage. Really sorry this has happened to you. Wish I could do more to help. Prayers!!!!

Tony, just so you know, there is actively a network of 200+ truckers who are currently looking for your car as a favor to me, on the highways; covering areas from the 5 burroughs and most of NJ, and CT. Sorry to report that it has not been spotted yet.

This is just so uncool...it's so difficult to have a decent car in NYC without something happening to it. Good Luck! It's really sad to see a beautiful GS like this one gone. Very sorry to hear.

if you had ezpass on the car, you may want to check if the person crossed any bridges or tunnels, etc. may help you narrow your search.

good luck man!

Default Update - Car Has Been Recovered!!!!!

I spoke to Tone a little while ago. He doesn't have access to a computer right now. The detective assigned to the case just called him up. They let him know tthe car was recovered a couple of hours ago in Jamaica, Queens.

Well according to the detective they took all the audio/tv screens and they crashed the car. His trunk is empty except for the fiberglass enclosure (no subs - I didn't think they would leave JL audo 13w7's behind). The interior is intact, so are the wheels and the body kit (minus whatever damage happened in the crash). No airbag deployment Which is a good thing, i guess, considering the circumstances.

They basically took - rough estimate - close to $10K in audio equipment

We'll see exactly what they did tomorrow or today that is, when we go to pick it up from the impound . I'm taking the camera, so I'll post up some pictures later of the damage.

He also told me to make sure that everyone knows that he appreciated the support and thanks
