break in

Heads up to everyone!

This is what I came back from work to find last night.



They only seemed interested in the seats but did plenty of damage to the rest of the interior and exterior while they were in there.

If anyone hears, sees, or has any information about someone trying to sell Evo seats...PLEASE let me know so I can inform the authorities and try to keep this from happening to anyone else's car.

Also, I park in the "secured" OIA employee lot and I've seen several other Evo's parked there as well. If you know any of these owners please warn them ASAP. According to the police my car was the first to be burglarized but chances are now it won't be the last.

Thanks

Thank you, I'll compromise that as a compliment; though you may have to go on the Back To The Future ride at Universal Studios to see the only dinosaur in Orlando.

Furthermore, these sweethearts know that when they get on our local Orlando forum and act the way they do here, they become shark bait to the other model/manufacturer's car owners. Over there, an Evo owner is an Evo owner -- Doesn't matter who tunes your car or makes your piping and how much meth you use.

That's why they hide here and talk about everyone else's car, because they know when they go back the city they live in, the Evo isn't always the fastest turbo car on the street.

If you're passionate about your Evo, that's great. If you're like me and own other models/manufacturer's vehicles as well and enjoy it, that's even better. Show your support and make positive input and suggestions. Make referrals to shops, fabricators and tuners based on the needs of the person that desires them... and not directly equivalent to what your opinion lays heavy on. I've sent people to TTP and I've sent people to XtremeBoost. If it's something else, I sent it to CFT or Titan accordingly. I don't refer everyone to a Jestr tune. I don't think TTP can tune my BMW.

Get with the program everyone, segregations sucks.

Can you physically prove that there are stolen parts sold there?

I'm not talking about your theoretical suggestions by seeing matching colors and body parts off a stolen car but I'm depending on your word and the fact that you've provided police reports and hardcore evidence that proves what you've just blatantly stated.

I'm just asking out of curiosity, because I'm a consumer as well and I like to buy things at a discounted cost that doesn't carry the grief of anyone's loss in theft action.

I am sory to see this has happen to you, Man.

I know the feeling. When I was about your age and also worked at OIA, I too came to my car then and seen the same thing happen to me at the employee lot. And that was back in the day. The seats were not stolen, but they took my radar detector and everything I had inside the car, .

Good luck on the repairs. It will be good as new when you get it fixed .

Not sure how to prove theyre not stolen unless the seller can provide the info But, that forum has a lot of members that sell stolen parts from cars that have been broken into or stolen cars..There has been a few that have got caught, you can search for threads on this..Just be on the look out and check it everyday..I think youre on that forum, so you should know what im talking about

Rule #7, under Admin Moderator KK's post...

No bashing vendors, shops, or other websites without just cause. evolutionm.net reserves the right to determine when just cause has been proven, so all complaints should be sent to our staff for evaluation. If you don't like it and haven't talked to our staff about it, don't post.

The rules are the rules and you are not to be excluded from them, my friend. I reviewed them carefully when I joined so please do the same and be courteous in your corresponding reply.

Furthermore, you are well informed that I frequent that forum as that is OUR local forum for all general vehicle enthusiasts and students in the area. I know this because I complimented your knowledge in Mitsubishi Evolution due to your previous ownership in many different models. I respect that and you acknowledged it. You're a nice big part of that loving community as well, my friend

Said forum has its own moderators as well as three (3) different law enforcement officers and many attorneys and assistants for the state, which we know of at the least, that habitat on the same.

Also, stolen goods are rarely recovered without serial numbers provided by the owner that claim the same. I would know, I had a vehicle with over $11k in mods and found a good portion of them scattered on the glorious internet in Florida. Recovery of said products wasn't as easy as finding them as your local law enforcement will speak to you of, if in the case you ask them to provide such information.

It's always fun to not be shy but don't be so blunt as to call out a whole website and pin them as a centerpiece for providing harbor for thieves and stolen parts. Can you individually name these 'a lot of members' that are known thieves to you, so our EvoM users don't buy stolen parts? Or are you just 'assuming'. Like you said, haters always assume so I'm hoping you're not hating on the ability of a thief to generate money and assuming they're using OrlandoForums.com as a backboard support for e-transactions.

Please advise me.

Thanks everyone....
I'm well aware of the chances of actually recovering my seats. I just hope that my negative experience may somehow help in preventing it from occuring to anyone else.

I wonder why such an increased ineterest in EVO's. We just need to help keep an eye out on everyones EVO's. With a community like ours, it should't be hard to spot something out of place. My sympathies to you Red KY.
