I bought an evo8 MR 1 week ago, dark gray with stock wheels powdercoated black. Car was lowered and had a JIC titanium catback on it and tinted windows, harness bar behind the front seats and the 2 front seats were the evo9 seats.

Can everyone PLEASE keep a look out for parts or a car with no plates on it anywhere and keep contact me if any parts or anything seem weird.

I really appreciate if anyone finds anything and there will be a reward for good leads to the finding of my car.

you just hope you'll never found it. In most case, people found it in bad condition and insurance won't title it in salvage title.

I am not saying that this happened, but, quite often when a car is stolen right after you bought it used, the original owner is the culprit.

Again, I don't know who sold it to you. But when you buy a used car locally, especially very close by, it is a good idea to change the door locks, alarm frequency, and ignition if feasible. If you don't do all of that, it's pretty easy for the original owner to gain easy access to the vehicle. I would look into this possibility if I were you. Then again, maybe it is a coincidence it happened right after you bought it.

Either way it sucks and I hope everything works out for you. good luck.
