Be on the lookout...
Friday night my 8 was stolen , and someone suggested that I might let you guys know to be on the lookout for parts that may pop up for sale. It was in the North Phoenix area and the spec's are in my sig(plate number RXGR8).

My friend just had her acura stolen a few nights ago from a secured underground garage at her condo... the video survalance showed it took the guy an hour and a half to disable the immobilizer system and steal the rims from the car next to hers as well..
So i guess if you know your cars/electronics you can bypass and re-wire anti-theft devices and drive off... otherwise a tow tuck takes all of 20-40 seconds to lift ur car using wheel dollies (So you dont have to pop the lock and disengage the parking brake)

Sucks dude. Sorry to hear it. I got mine lo-jacked and was thinking of taking it out (I'm paranoid about the whole 1984 surveillance thing)...but now I might keep it. Especially since where I live there have been numerous accounts of rogue tow truck companies just taking cars! It happened to my neighbor and co-worker.
Anyway, sorry to hear about it. That's heartbreaking.

just in case, you might as well right what the condition of the items were. even though the seller wont know how long youve had it for, pics could show wear and tear. gl on the finD!
