Well its defiently not a street encounter, so this will be locked no matter what.

Just for fun, here are my comments about this.

1. The s2000 doesnt have a very big back window, let alone a back seat to hide in.

2. If someone seriously tries to open your door at a traffic light, get out, drop kick them in the throat, stab them in the face with a soldering iron, proceed to destination.

3. Most people already do lock their doors when going inside to pay for gas, or take their keys with them inside. Also the gas tank is right beside the driver door, and it would take forever to jump in the passenger side, get in the driver side and take off.

4. Has nothing to do with your car. Anyone can break into your home and steal your keys. Most homes now have alarm systems, or it might be obvious if you wake up to your windows being shattered. Also, a loud exhaust on the s2000 would benifit you to know if someone started your car. I bet most theives don't know how to get the s2000 in reverse anyways at first.



Ohh, and IBTL!

Just curious, until today..... were you not aware that people steal things? That has been going on as long as there has been both people, and things.

Furthermore.... I've searched every nook and cranny, and I can't find the backseat for a thief to hide in.

I think you had been racing too much with your s2000 that you're confusing breaking with braking. Been doing late and hard braking while racing lately?
