People suck. Having seen a couple of thefts recently, its likely gone. Sucks to see a sweet car like that go missing. I've always had something weird for S2000s.

:hs: me too

Gotta keep them in a garage, otherwise they're gone. Simple as that.

:werd: It's so bad I have contemplated buying a cheap one, insuring it for a lot, and parking it on the west side for a few days and then just collect the pay out lol

Seriously, all you need is a set of wheels. Park it outside, and it'll be gone. A stock one will usually get left alone, as it looks like it isn't worth shit.

The one in this thread was probably scoped out somewhere, dude was probably followed home, and boom, stolen. You absolutely MUST be aware of your surroundings if you own a car that people can part out so easily. If there's someone behind you in your area, take a detour, try to lose them. It's always worth the extra effort. Loud cars (looks wise, not ricer wise) usually attract a lot of attention.
