This sucks. I had a car stolen right outside of my apt a few years back. There's a special place for car thieves when they "expire". I hope the owner gets the car back, but it's mostly at the chop shop right now

If I could I would.

It was parked on the street right in front of my building in NYC. The bastards took my car out to Long Island and stripped it to the bones. They found it 4 days later.

FTW = For the Win... that's from Celebrity Squares or something? Whatever the origin, I'm surprised it's used here too. I thought it was just at bimmerforums. lol
