Man, too many cars stolen around the Mid-West, it just sounds unreal to me. I'm definitely garaging my Evo from now on. Even going to grab an alarm first thing.

Sorry for your loss. My buddy's car was stolen and even to this day, I haven't trusted anyone with my car except my close friends.

I come from a honda family, so I definitely know how you feel. I've had my fair share of car theft. I know how you feel..

That is really smart. They tried to steal my Evo right out of my garage but couldnt figure it out, so they just ripped all the parts they could off of it. I think they screwed up my steering column by jamming a screwdriver in the ignition..

Hey Ryan(?), I thought you were going back to Muscle cars when you sold your old Evo. Sorry to hear about your MR=(. What did the insurance people say? Hopefully you have good coverage and get as much money back. Good luck!
