***STOLEN VR FD*** Orlando

I just got a call from a friend, his FD was stolen from an Apt Complex in the Orlando area...Before midnight last night, sorry I don't have more details.

93 VR w/ roll bar (easily spotted from front or rear), Loud titanium exhaust





please be on the look out for parts or the car.

PFC
Greddy 3 Row
GT35R
Greddy Exh
Twin Power
Pullies
Volk Wheels
Exeedy Twin Plate Clutch
anything seen above...

I have no idea how they stole it, most likely a flatbed?!?!

He is currently in GA and can not file a report until he returns.

This car is equip with a motor built by Rick Engman...needless to say, he wants his car back, and insurance will not be able to replace what is gone.



TIA

Man, that's too bad given the wide array of free options to obstruct simple theft in moderate risk areas.

My g/f's Accord got stolen off a hotel parking lot 2 weeks ago. I hope you don't get the same outcome as we did. Car was found wrapped around a tree.

My eyes and ears are open. If I hear/see anything at all, I am calling the cops first... then posting it here.

Good luck to ya!

Are you sure it wasn't towed. My buddy thought his car was stolen until the cops told him it was at an impound yard for improper parking. Just a thought!

Any Pics of what it looks like now?

I know that makes you want to be a killer on the road when you find out who did this.

Bunch of Bastards.

You have my support as well as most the forums.

Jeez, sorry to hear about the outcome of this.

Hope some sort of justice comes out of this, or at least a nice check from your insurance company.
