I called the cops, and the neighbors saw who did it. I think I know who it was, so I'm tempted to find a picture of him and show the neighbor to see.

I always found it odd that he would tell me to not let people know that the car was his when explaining about it...Hmmm.

I would say, when you do find who did it, kill him.

UPDATE - Found the car, but by the time the cops arrived, the guy jetted....

So now he knows I'm getting closer, and better watch his ***.

Dude, I'm sorry to hear that... I'd shoot someone if they stole/tried to steal my car. The beauty of living in Kentucky...

Yeah, I'd shoot if that wouldn't put me into a bunch of ****. Oh well, I feel happier now that I'm so close to the ending. I just hope the cops hold up their end with the info.

*UPDATE*

Well, I guess it's about time for me to give up this thought of getting my car back.

The one guy who can help me get it back is slagging his feet and or doesn't care. With his story in court, I'd get the car back....this makes me a sad panda. The guy who stole my car KNOWS who I am, too. I went to his work for some food, finding out after I get there that he is working today. He walks by, does a double take. The kid looks scared shitless to see me. You don't just steal someones car and drive it around as if it's yours.....anger rises.

I would BTF out of that dude on site. It would be worth a night in jail. Just get someone to follow the dude, eventually he will go to the car.

Get a baseball bat and hit him in the head, take your keys back and drive it home.

OK. Something is fishy with this story.
Well, everything is fishy with this story.

You know who stole your car, you know where he is and you know where it is.

How is that any different than it just being parked outside your house? Go get it.

is the car not under your name? did the guy lose it to you in a "race for pink slips?" Did he buy the car from you when you were drunk and now you want it back?

If your neighbor is draggin his feet just tell him/her that they are witness to the crime and failure to report would result in being arrested for aiding and abetting.

OK, let me start over...from the beginning.

Guy who had car originally Owner 1. He gave the car to the next guy, Owner 2.

-----This part is from the mouth of Owner 2...don't know how credible it is, considering his reluctance in helping me...------

Owner 1 lost his title, so filed for a Lost Title while trading the car to Owner 2. Owner 1 had the title mailed directly to Owner 2's house. Title reads the Owner of the car being Owner 1, but the Mail To: address was Owner 2. Well, Owner 2 never had the title transferred to his name, so it's still in Owner 1's name. Owner 2 then comes to me and trades the car straight up for another RX-7. Owner 1 apparently finds his title, and comes and takes the car back with his keys. NOTE: I never got the title signed over to my name, as I could never get a hold of Owner 1 to get him to sign the title over *go figure...*. Cops are not exactly being too busy on this due to that fact. I was told this will be a small claims court matter, and the only way I believe I'll be able to get this car back is if Owner 2 confesses the story to the judge.

CLIFF NOTES
Owner 1 gives car to Owner 2
Owner 2 gives car to me
Owner 1 never signs title over to me by laying low and not contacting me, comes and takes the car back. Original car I traded FOR the stolen car is long gone now. My mistake for signing the title over prior.

*EDIT*

I've been told by some people that since the title was "Mailed To" Owner 2, then he can sign off on the title and I can get it put in my name. I don't see how that is legal, but does anybody else have any insight on that?

^ Go to a lawyer in your area who has some experience with this.

Most lawyers will give you a free first consultation.

Get the correct answer for your State - anything else is just conjecture.

Good luck!

So, you don't actually own the car legally.

Wow, that's a stupid story.
