update:



its being towed the body shop now..



transmission is somehow stuck in gear, the steering column plastic was broken off, my evc pro is stil there, they tried to steal my radio, but my ghetto l-brackets held it in

they stole my commander, nothing under the hood seems to be missing, i dont know what shape the motor is in.. apparently the guys at the recovery place drove it up the driveway at the yard..



they stole my license plates, my extra oil, my extra bulbs.. (huh?)

somehow they bypassed all my alarms, they took the alarm head out, and defeated the ignition kill.. they had plugged the power-fc in and out, that i saw..



insurance will be looking at it, i hope they don't total it i dont care what it takes, i just want her to be back to what she was....

I bet they dont even know whatthe commander for your PFC is.

They probably think they have a cell phone. Idiots.

Well watch the forums and ebay for a commander f/s in Jersey.



I'm glad your gettingyour car back man. Werd

Aww man...good luck when you see her. I remember when my first FD got stolen, I was getting ready to leave for work so I went downstairs to warm-up my car, turned it on, took out my key and set my turbo timer to 5 minutes, I went back in the house to grab my jacket real fast, come back out, and see the mother ****** driving off with my car.



I felt paralyzed because I didn't know what to do as I watched my car leave me. But like 2 seconds later, I hear a loud CRASH!! And guess what! It was my car!! I guess what had happened was that the steering wheel had locked because the turbo timer turned the car off. He probably thought I left the car on with the keys in it. And so I go over there, and guess what...it was one of my classmates from college.



I shoulda beat the **** out of him, but I didn't. He got arrested, and my car was totaled. But at least I got some money out of it, but it's not even close to how much I spent on the car. I'm still recovering. I feel your pain...
