From my previous experience, if your car is going to get stolen, it will. Alarm or no alarm. 2 guys hit my car. One guy at the hood, the other at the driver side window. The one smashed the window and opened the hood while the other yanked the alarm cable off the battery. All we heard was a 2 chirps. Break steering column, goodbye.

The most I would do on any car is either the club, hidden ignition cutoff switch, or a radio shack LED light.

Hmmmmm

Well the first mistake would be to think my battery is under the hood.

I am one who thinks you can make it easier for the creeps to steal someone else's car.....

The troubling part of this original story is that the car was taken from a garage.

Had to be someone who "knew" about the car.

Car still not recovered, the criminal scumbag broke into the house and left in the car after finding spare key. My phone number is 561 601 5520 if anyone sees the car or dial 911 and follow car but do not attempt to stop. I will not rest for the rest of my life until I find a clue and catch this scumbag. Car is easy to spot with 996 wheels and tires, bra, and red letters on back. Blue interior. Cat bypass, Sony stereo, Orion amps, Celestion AD 12 sub woofer .
I will post vin later.

Hi Rich,
the ultimate nightmare... sorry to hear about your loss. I'm here in Ft Lauderdale and will keep my eyes open. 928's are very rare here.
regards,
Sab.

Well hope you have the car well documented. Like reciepts for ALL repairs. and extra things like that stereo and stuff. The wheels are big money alone.
On the bright side settle with the insurance company and start searching for a replacement. Now you know what to look for during your search for more HP and less widgets that don't work.
I wish someone would steal my 78!!! Really

I will have my eyes peeled in the midwest, and a .45 on my side. Good luck to you.

A little hint and suggestion, I have a manual fuel pump disconnect that is easily operated on the way out of the car (carjacking) or as it sits in the garage. Get creative on placement of the disconnect and wiring, and it will be hard to find how to bypass it. On top of that, I have a coil disconnect as well in another location.

Now, a flatbed taking it away, that is another story.
