So sorry. Hope your insurance will cover everything.I remember when my car was pushed into the street but the neighbour saw them before the flatbed got there. I had a $1,000 deductible. Forget about the cops. They are no help.
And yes... movie theatres are the worst place to park your vehicle. Someone follows you in and once you park they know your not coming back for a few hours.

It really makes no difference what the car had or didnt have. Its gone and discussing if it had GPS tracking here wont bring it back. Id appreciate it if those comments were left in your head and not posted here. Thanks.
If a thief wants your car bad enough you could have whatever you want installed, they will find a way to take it. I wouldnt be surprised if it was just towed away, nobody would ever stop to question it.

I would almost classify it as the bystander effect. Thinking about it now i would probably say something. In my old neighbourhood all my neighbours would be outside asking questions if my car were being towed away. They did too, when i towed it to the honda dealership nearly 2 years ago. Maybe i was spoiled living in such an area for most of my life.

Sorry to hear mate. Hopefully your insurance will at least cover the monetary component properly. The emotional component is the hard part though so chin up and I suppose if worst comes to worst, start thinking about a replacement S2K or perhaps something new...We all get attached to our vehichles, myself included but, at the end of the day, they're just material possessions. Nevertheless, hope it all works out.

Was driving around in a shady part of Vaughn and went behind a commercial complex, I saw the nose of a Gpw s2000 sticking out and my heart skipped a beat. It was an ap2 tho black seats ap2 lights and pretty beat up. Checked the dash vin and wasn't mine. Fenders were still oem.
There was a silver stone ap1 on enkies out front too.
So close but so far....

Hope this will prevent future thefts. When parking my cars in my driveway I always crank the steering all the way to 1 side. I know the bastards can steal it too but it just gives the car a little protection.

If someone wants to start finding these missing cars they need to set up a sting operation in that parking lot.
We've seen maybe a half-dozen cars stolen like this where the cars disappear real fast, sometimes right out of the homeowner's driveway, along with some high-end NSX's. I admire you looking for your car Serhan, but my guess is that these cars don't make it back on the road in Ontario. I think they might end up in a shipping container destined for foreign shores ?
If it happened to me I'd be working to get the best money you can out of the insurance company and put a deposit down on Himura's super clean S2000 once you get over the insurance waiting period.
