Dang, Sorry to hear that. I'm pretty sure I saw that car when I was there to drop off the guitar to you! I'l keep my eyes pealed for it!

dude that is kind of spooky. I remember going to look at it earlier in the spring before I bought my GSX. I even took it for a test drive. Sorry to hear about that.

I am definatly going to lock my doors now.

Well what do you know? I get a call from the local po-po this morning and my beloved GVR-4 has been found. After sitting in the parking lot of the F*&^%$#@ tow company for 6 hours waiting for the locksmith and then a flatbed, I got it towed back to my shop. The thieves have been driving it around and were even nice enough to put in a new battery, a factory stereo and give it a wax job! The only thing they took from the car was the replacement steering rack I had in the trunk, the dash vin tag and swapped out my ignition for one with a key for their personal use. The car has no other damage and looks exactly like I had it. The funny thing is it was towed for not having plates on it, I'm not sure if it was abandoned or not, it doesn't sound like it.

Scheides, now you can get off your proscrastinating ass and pick this sweet honey up. :D I'll check on the vin tag thing tomorrow. And I'll sweeten the price as well, I don't want this thing sitting around to get stolen again. :eek:

Congrats and Good Deal. I would say invest in a immobilizing alarm like the previous owners of my car did. Or a dethachable steering wheel, they make really nice ones that u just push on and they lock in place and when u take it off u can put a lock on it so they cant just put a different steering wheel on.

It's a car for sale, so I'm not going to pimp it out with some elaborate alarm system, I'll just sell it. ;)

So Steve, what is your plans to help prevent future thefts? This is the 2nd one now I believe, that I know about. Do you have those anti-theft devices that go on the windows like large dealers have or aren't those any good?
