Default my gt3 STOLEN: UPDATE FOUND TORCHED



My beautiful speed yellow gt3 (featured in my avatar) was cruelly stolen today from the red rock casino in vegas - i was parked on the 4th floor where there isnt much foot traffic (which I guess is not the good thing I thought it was)...

I am so furious I cant believe it.



so upset.

I am so sorry for the bad news. I've had 2 cars stolen, but nothing as special as your GT3. In one case, my car was found 2 weeks later stripped to the frame. In the other, it was recovered and lightly damaged. The first outcome was better being alot less aggravation in the end. Unless the car cannot be replaced, I wouldn't want it back.

That is indeed just totally wrong.
Any tracking devices? Any security camera recordings to look at? I wonder if they stole it by towing it away.

too late now but LoJack with early warning works well. The early warning device vibrates to let you know live time that someone is fuc*ing with your car. That way my 1911 and I can walk up and see if they need any help.

Oh yea.
Have three notches in the handle grip of my 1911A1.Wouldn't mind adding a few more in this particular case.
