Default STOLEN 944 TURBO (Mine)

Please be on the lookout.

Right around 10.42pm, my 944 turbo was stolen out of the garage. The cameras caught everything. The car just left the garage with its engine running and everything.

Black 1986 Porsche 944 turbo with about 117,000 miles on it.

That sucks. I hope you get it back in short order.

A word to the wise - here are two additional methods of theft protection you can employ (I do these when I park my car overnight at the train station or other places that concern me. . .)

(1) pull coil wire & take it with you.
(2) pull DME relay.

Either takes about 10 seconds and unless you're dealing with a pro with a flatbed, they'll likely move on.

man I hate seeing these threads on Rennlist.

have you delivered any and all evidence/pictures/videos to the local authorities so they can begin their search? I hope they catch this guy and take him off this mudball called Earth, or I'll do it for you.

Best of luck to you and I hope you get your car back...

What do you mean "with its engine running and everything"? Residential garage?

Little awkward walking around with a dirty coil wire in your pocket on the way to a nice dinner, etc!

aw man it kills me to hear this. Your 951 is gorgeous, you've taken very nice pictures of it which really shows your love for the car. I hope you get it back and she's unharmed.
