s2k being a luxury vehicle?? Ya right we don't even have power seats.

 

That's about the funniest thing I've ever heard.

My S2K isn't stock, but I'd describe it more as an ear-splitting, spine snapping kind of luxury vehicle.

Fits like a coffin, rides like a rocket.

FORBES AUTOS... Look to the left, it says americas... but by just looking at it, it doesnt say luxury... sorry

 

It always makes me wonder when a thread like this is started by a non-owner.

 

I think his question is an honest one.
Its not like he was asking how to steal the vehicle.

 

Thanks, gents.

1) It's a sincere question by a would-be 2007 S2K owner. I'm just tryin' to get smart _before_ shit happens this time, instead of after, like I usually do. But I can understand the reaction. I figured it was a provocative question.

2) Knowing how they are stolen, and what is stolen, helps me be on guard. For example, I knew a guy who kept having his Honda (or Acura, I can't remember) broken into because the thieves wanted one thing and one thing only, i.e., a computer of some sort that was in the dash. Nobody ever took the car itself or anything else. I gather the thieves were able to fence this part at a high rate of return.

3) I would never have guessed that someone would want to steal seats. That's a new one on me and helps me to think about how I could protect the car (OEM hardtop?).

3a) So, what's a seat lock? Can you give me a web link?

4) If this car is on any darn Most Stolen List, then I'm gonna get massacred by my insurance company . . . but if I keep my junky Toyota, I can tell them the S2K is my weekend-only second car . . . ?

5) I ain't out to steal nobody's stuff. I have a Yamaha R1 and we think about people making off with our bikes all the time. It just becomes part of your thinking.

6) L.A. is not the car-thievin'-est town I have ever lived in. Boston in the '80s was. But, like I said, I sometimes wind up on not-so-good streets late at night.

Again, thanks. I welcome more info.

P.S. Joining this Forum has been a very useful and enlightening experience for me. I'm glad to be here, and I hope soon to be an S2K owner and a _fully participating_ member of the club!

 

The seat locks are like wheel locks for your seats. Same concept.

Here is a link for more info. I dont think the guy sells them anymore.

depending on what the thieves want, u might want to concider a steering wheel quick release. take the steering wheel where ever u go, there for, they can take what ever, BUT the car!! (taking into account they dont have a spair steering wheel)

Any car can be stolen if the right people want it enough.
