A girl I know (ex named Laura) had her '99 Si stolen 4 times before it was finally totaled out. Its too bad they are so easy to steal with most their parts being worth so much on the used market :(

Thanks guys. It's a numbers game and I've been really lucky to deal with a lot of honest people over the last 4-5 years doing this. This is only the second major loss I've encountered. I'm not expecting to get it back, my guess is that it's mostly stripped by now, but if I get it back, I'd be overjoyed. Yes, I have it insured as are all my cars, and this is actually one of the cheapest cars I have right now. The bummer is insurance is expensive for dealers, so my deductible is significant. It's not a total loss, but I could get a half decent DSM for the amount I will lose.

I figure putting the word out through the car boards might help, so if anybody hears anything, I'd appreciate it and I'll take Scheides up on the beatdown help. Plus I told the cops that if they find them, a 2-hour strip search on the side of the road would be a nice start. They agreed completely. In fact they were so cool, they'd probably bring the perpetrators back to my shop for a little "discussion". :D

Oh yeah, Hondas suck. ;)

there is a 2000 that looks alot like the one in that pic (same missing parts) on ebay that is the same color and a SI. pretty stripped powertrain and alot of interior but if it is stripped then you might be able to use the one on ebay as a parts car.

Keep a good attitude. I know a guy who had a SI that was pretty modded and the cops found it stripped but after looking around all of the parts were there but the motor and trans, the theives hadn't been able to take all the parts they got off so the cops waited around and sure enough they showed back up! The guy didn't have insurance but he did get his car back... just in a TON of pieces.

and what kind of car did they show up in? Pretty crazy to show up to steal a car in a stolen car. Also I like how some dealers will let you take a car out on your own, mabey just start copying their licence / taking a poloraid so if it happens again you will have a pic, alot of dealers down here do that.

what could you do with a stock civic? part it?

isnt the vin printed on just about every part of the car?

what would they be doing with that car? my guess is to part it, but who knows, maybe they are just gonna drive it off a cliff....

sorry to hear that its stolen, call the cops and hope for the best
Yep, they will part it out. You know how hype up the b16 engine on the Honda market plus the tranny. They don't care. They could strip it down and sell everthing for 1k. They will still make money because it was not their car.
That sucks alot. I hope they catch those two pricks. They give asian people bad names.
Steve how much were you asking for the car?
