I'm in the process of sending all the documentation I had and the invoices of all the parts that were installed on the Evo. Car hasn't shown up. It's a 50-50 chance (with evos) it will according to the claims rep.

I've started to look around for another one in case mine doesn't show up.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. You had a clean Evo but unfortunately South Florida is not short of scumbags. If these thieves get caught they will probably go to jail for 6-12 months. Stealing cars is considered a non-violent crime and the jails down here have no space for these imbeciles.

I live in an apartment building and I was recently parking my Evo outside in the street although there is a driveway I can use. Then one morning the owner of the building next to mine came to me to tell me that he had an emergency in his building in the early morning hours and had to stop by. He said it was around 4:30 a.m. and as he was driving past my building when he saw four thugs (won't mention race/skin color so no one calls me a bigot) checking out my car and flashing lights to see inside of it. When the thugs saw him they went inside there white Honda and drove away. He said that they ended up driving around my block 4 times and never came back. Maybe God was looking over my car that night. From that night on I park my Evo in the driveway.

Before this car, I owned a civic hatch. That got stolen. I would hate to go through that again.

I know some will laugh but those things will make a car thief think twice.
I'm sure you are correct with that statistic, but it should also be noted that Evos are nowhere near the top of the list of most commonly stolen vehicles. Im fairly certain its safe to assume most evo thefts are NOT for joyrides.

Good luck with your car man.

Everyone else- BUY AN ALARM! and install a JDM map sensor. If someone bypasses your immobilizer by using their own ECU, it would have to be set up to use the JDM map, or else it wouldn't start.

Moor guns, less crime.

I feel like theft is a violent crime, if for no other reason than I would like to shoot someone if they try to steal my car. Silent alarms that go off on your keychain by your bedside were invented for people like me just waiting for an excuse to shoot someone.

Sorry about the theft man, hope they get caught, you get your car back, and possibly they get "shanked" in prison.
