My Baby Is Gone

I've waited 10 years to get my hand on this car... finally 2 years ago my dream came true and in a split of a second... it's gone. Everything ended tonight. My baby is gone... she's been taken from me :cry:

I went out to meet my wife in Edina after work at her work place so we can leave together in one car and catch a Timberwolves game downtown at the Target Center.

Got to her work around 6:15pm or so and heading out together in her mini-van (assuming my car will be safer on the parking lot of her work place in EDINA).

Game ended about 9:15pm or so... head back to get the car... my heart sank the moment I notice my car isn't there anymore... at first I thought... well it may have been towed... then again we've already notify her work place we're leaving my car there for a few hours and we'll be back to pick it up after the game :cry:

My car is no where to be found... no glass breakage, no sign of foul play. I've parked my car there in the past without any incident.

Called 911... got Edina Police on the phone and they ran a check... no car was towed in the area :cry: Now I'm beggining to worry frantically.

Cop showed up on the scene and took down details. Finally got home and called my Insurance company to report.

Now I'll just have to wait and hope for the best.

I'm in a sad, pissy and mad mood all together. Going to bed now and hope for a better tomorrow.

 

Holly Sh1T!!! Someone jacked your STI! OMG!...sorry dude...I hope everything works out. Don't her work have cameras or something? That totally sucks man... No alarm? didnt you have compustar? Damn yo, good luck! If I see your STI, I will kick their ass and get it back to you ;-)

 

wow! that really sucks. it is nuts to think that someone would just out of now where steal your STi. i hope the police can find your car, and hopefully in one piece too.

what was the liscence plate? if i see it i will notify you/police.

i am just awe struck at what some people will do. good luck with finding the car. maybe insurance will buy you another new one?

 

Couldn't sleep... Here's the detail on the car.

2004 Subaru WRX STi
21k miles
Blue with Gold BBS Rims
License Plate: LLR 055

 

Sorry to hear, hope everything works out with your insurance! Did you have more than Liability?

 

damn brother... i'm sorry to hear that man. if i had my heart, it would be all out to your loss, but a damn bitch stole it and tore it apart!

 

dude, that is so lame i cant even believe it. id also ask if there are cameras anywhere

 

Dang, Vic! I'm so sorry for the loss of your STi. I hope it gets returned or found soon. It sickens me everytime someone else thinks anything can be theirs if they can steal it.

Third on the workplace cameras. If they do and are willing to cooperate with you on it, maybe the authorities would have a better chance of finding it. What gets to me is that there aren't no signs of broken glass. Either someone used a key or they pulled the window outward and unlocked it. Either way, the car is gone and your insurance should take responsibility for it's coverage.

Dang, man! :cry:

 

well....I think it's gonna come back with everything gone.... *sigh*
damn bastards! shooo After putting my headers on, I was afraid that Impreza L people that I don't know of might come take my wagon just to see what I got under the hood.

arrggggGGGG

 

No camera on site, just talked with my wifes work place this morning and yes, I do have full insurance coverage.

Still waiting to hear back from my Insurance claim team.

 

was it modded at all? insurance to the rescue! we have an 04 wrb with silver wheels right now at minnetonka suby. just an fyi for when you start looking

 

That really sucks man...hopefully the cops catch those @$$holes!!!

 

So sorry to hear that Vic!!!

on the glass thing, they could've done what they did with my girlfriends old cherokee...put a towel over the window, tap it with a ball peen, very quite, and all the glass falls into the car, then clean it up later.

 

you know how i feel bro, sorry about work as well. maybe if you quit i can have your job...lol jk.

 

Sorry to hear about that Vic! I had a car taken form me back in 2000 and it sucks. Hope everything works out for you.

 

Justin, my job is stable and good. You know I'm the man when it comes to my job. I'm good at what I do

I'm just piss and cranky right now. Thanks for suggesting on another car but I'm just not interested in the new STi or a used STi... I just want my car back but knowing it'll be stripped or damage from the incident... I'm not so sure if I'll want it back either.

I'm just hoping for the best :cry:

 

good luck with car

 

Sorry Vic I hope you get your car back soon.

 

awww man, that sucks man.....i know how you feel, i was piss as heck the night i lost my car as well. Hope for the best and that your sti returns in 1 piece.

 

so sorry to hear that. hope it all turns out good like u r on overhoulen or somthing

 

Sorry to hear about it. Hope it all works out!!

 

sorry to hear about that. what did u have in the car

 

omfg whyd u give it away u retard

 

Sorry bud, that sucks A**, I will keep an eye open for your car. Hope you or the cops find the sorry SOB!

 

ok guys, keep an eye out for sti parts.

 

Man, that just sucks. I had a motorcycle stolen once, full coverage so I wasn't out ten gees. But the cop first came out and wondered if a friend had taken it as a joke. Idiot.

Sorry to hear about it. Hopefully they get busted for an unrelated charge and spend some "quality" time in prison. :evil:

 

more than likely, no one's going to prison from this... thought i wish they would. let's just say we all put a man hunt together and find these fockers, string them by the knards, and tattoo "suba-who?" on their man breasts...

 

best idea ever. seriously though that really sucks. I hope the best for your car.

 

Really sorry to hear about this, I'll keep an eye out on the road. I've got your license number and I'll be checking out every STi I see.

I know how you feel, had my RX-7 jacked back in '88 by a couple of high school kids looking for a joy ride. Sure do hope your Scoob turns up in good shape.

 

Vic,

I got word last night from my brother.....man this is sad, really I am sorry and hope you can get the car back.

Didn't you have a really good alarm system for that car? How did they by pass that?

I will keep an a eye for it on the road or at ebay.

John

 

^^ this makes me feel uneasy; i totally forgot about his alarm... i have a lower end model, the preivous year's top of the line aalarm, but they easily took his car. that sucks... plus my alarm sucks now...

 

alarm shmarm,
a wedge, wire rod will open the doors, pop the hood and 2 seconds later your buddy kills the alarm.

13 seconds and it's hooked, 8 more and its loaded.

i would fear that by now its stripped and sitting on shelves in chicago, ready to be sold accross the city.

i'm really sory this happend to you man. 100% total suckage.

 

man, whoever stole it must have either knwon alot about subies ( i would have no clue where to even start in breaking into one) or just know CRAZY amounts about stealling cars.

i gotta start devising a HIGH voltage, HIGH current shocker system for an alarm. tough the car and make their hair start mokin! think there would be a market for these?

 

alarms only deter smash and grab thieves in built up areas. I a remote parking lot, there's nobody to hear it anyways. They'll just set it off, pop the hood and cut the siren anyways. and leaving it in a big lot means its easy to get on a truck. If theyre stealing it for parts that are valuable they'll just trailer the thing onto a truck and drive it to the shop so the cops wont pull them over and they never have to even worry about starting the car.

It's better that you never see it again. If you do, its usually badly messed up and can be more of a hassle. A friend got his car joyrided, smashed up, abandoned and used as a hobo toilet and got it back, the smell never left it, and the isurance company wouldnt total it.

Damn, reading this thread makes me mad all over again. :x Any word from the insurance company? Tell them you need a car ASAP. Don't they provide loaners for times like this?

 

Insurance company said to wait for 30 day before they can act on anything. I do have a rental for the time being.

Police Dept. has nothing yet.

 

feel you, walked into a bowling alley and out in 5 mins. too see my turbo civic hood up. all the goodies disappeared like that. made me mad as hell.

 

well.... kids need to learn to keep their hands off whats not theirs and to respect others property so a quick shock from an anti theft device would help speed up their nureons and they might learn it faster. J/K but then again is a normal looking subaur sitting in a parking lot at say midnight really that attractive to a kid? (especaily when they should be in under curfew)

i really hope that you get soe news soon. i have been keeping an eye out for 04 blue stis on the roads.

 

hmmm... someone has an extra set of rims??? maybe???

i dont think somone who knows how to steel a car would be stupid enough to sell parts for a car in a club the the owner is in

 

it was only a joke... but still, like they all say, who'd look for the culprit to return to the scene of a crime? they could be right under your own nose...

 

I'm really sorry Vic. I hope you get her back.
