Maybe the guy that stole it registered here.

 

Congrats to your friend. Now remind her it is better to play pocket pool than worry about where your car is.

 

Pretty lucky they found hit. Hopefully it's unmolested.

 

lmao

"Hi Im new here, I just got a 04 VR AT for uhh free. I was wonderin what mods I should do"

 

...and his corresponding "How did you find your first 8" post:

...

Sorry. That was probably over the top.

 

update?

 

Is it me or is this forum getting better and better everyday. Depressing I cant actually buy **** on the For Sale Tread...but at least I can laugh the pain away.

I do stand up comedy in Tyson's Corner...not bring my 8 there now. Thanks.

 

im puzzled....why would anyone steal an automatic rx8 with 16in rims?

 

i was wondering that, too.

it's not like the parts are particularly valuable since it doesn't have the good engine in it and the tranny is ****.

 

nevermind....I wrote this before I read that the vehicle was recovered.

Good thing she got it back! Lucky.

 

I'm glad your friend got her car back! What a stupid criminal. He should have at least taken the plates off if he was going to be as stupid as to leave it in his driveway.

 

Um.. It should be the same engine. Just doesn't produce as much top power than the MT because it's limited.

 

P7, you're forgetting that there is a low power, 4port version that was commonly fitted to AT transmissions. since she has 16 inch wheels, I'm going to lean towards her having a 4 port motor instead of the 6 port.

 

and oddly enough, the 4 port engine has more torque.

 

yeah, i was referring to the 4 port version.

 

Bwahaha, this idiot actually parked his newly stolen car in his own driveway, out in the open?

Maybe he's a religious guy and he had just been praying for a new car, and then found the car with keys in front of it in the parking lot...thank you Jesus! But officers, it was a gift from god!

Glad it was found. I hope there's no damage.

 

wow, they found it?! that's awesome!!!
give us more details as you get them

 

What kind of loser parks a stolen car in their own driveway???? Atleast you would think he would be smart enuff to park the car on the street....lol

 

Here's all the info the officers could let on until the court date. They were a bunch of teens, between the ages of 16 and 18. The only damage is the rear bumper, where they tore off the license plate from the bracket. I guess they didn't have a decent screwdriver to just unscrew the plates from the holder. Other than that, the car just reeked of cigarette smoke.

Apparently, someone tipped the cops when these no-good punksters drove the car to school to show off. Something didn't feel right... Maybe the 8 had a "You Go Girl" decal, while pulling up to the lot with 4 guys jumping out. Anywho, I won't know anymore until after the trial. Stupid criminals..

 

wow too many funny comments to reply to all, but im glad she got it back. was hopin a drug dealer stole it and left a brief case of money in the trunk :P

 

 

good thing they found it! damn kids haha

 

HAHA wow those are some dumbass kids right there.

Congrats on getting the car back

 

Sounds like a scenario for the show "Bait Car"...

 

rofl !

bunch of dumb asses.

good thing car is found unharm (well, minor damage that is)

lets hope that these punks goes to jail, ahh, while in there, hope they drop a fuxking soap.
