Default Does anyone park their S2k's at wonderland?

I just went to wonderland this weekend and I was wondering, considering they have softtops and are known to be broken into, does anyone park their S's at wonderland or at the vaughn mall, yorkdale mall? If I buy an S2k I'm debating on wether or not I use it for trips down south because I'll be scared people break into the car.

You must go to wonderland alot if this is a determining factor in your purchase. In other words this car is not meant to be a mall car.

is seat theft really an issue north of the border ?, I've never heard of anyone reporting seat thefts for a long time, unless they are happening and no one is reporting them.

New seat bolts/locks and a seat lock window sticker might be a consideration, just did it on my car, if that doesn't work then they can have the entire car.

I've parked my S2000 at all the places mentioned. Multiple times in fact. I always park in a corner spot at Wonderland and Vaughan Mills, and I park in the parking garage in Yorkdale, in a corner spot. So far I've had no issues with door dings/slashed top, stolen items. I don't think people will try and steal anything in either of the places mentioned since they are relatively populated even in the parking lot with everyone coming and going. I would be more concerned about getting a door ding or something of the sort, hence why I always park in a corner spot and position my car closer to the side with no car so the person parked next to me on the other side can completely open their door without hitting my car.
