What is wrong with the Midwest? I've heard of 6 Honda's stolen and only 1 guy got his car back. Now, right under me, an STi is gone.... All this in just a week.

Hope things work out for you and your friend. This entire week is screwed up...

Yep, it's ridiculous. I think a lot of it has to do with resources really not being put towards the problem. I handed a local PD a name associated with a car theft last year where the parts had been put up on CL and they never even looked into it.

Theft used to be really bad in the NYC/Long Island area, then they invested some money into a police division called auto-crime and now the thefts are down like 98%. Some cars still get stolen but nothing like it used to be. The division drives impounded/recovered cars so you never know where they are, I saw officers in an H2 Hummer not to long ago. We even see them in street clothes poking around at some of the bigger car meets out here. Makes me feel better!!

Ja...
It sucks...
Got in an accident with mine...
Been gone for a month being repaired, so i have the nifty rental. I'm a bit down on money, so I couldn't afford the insurance, barely have the rental, but I have to get to work.
Well...
Someone decided to key my rental car...
I don't even know why! I dun have any enemies...
