Not just hype... I like 'em simply because there are parts on most enthusiasts cars that can't be insured. I once had a hot civic hatch stolen and stripped and I learned a lot about the valuation process. If it fits in their framework you can get money back for it (IE fancy wheels). Problem is that is is no suspension category. No custom ported motor category... No hardened transmission internal category. You get the idea. Hell, I had a b16a that was worth 4x the SOHC factory motor and it was worth $0 on their framework. I fought with them for the better part of a year but finally taking it one level higher would have been more expensive than settling so I caved.

The only way around the uninsurable parts issue is to have your car appraised in advance like the classic car owners do. However, that drives your rates up so it's a catch-22.

Lojack is supposed to be doubly effective because they don't advertise it's there. Crooks run the risk of having their whole chop shop broken up if a car gets traced to them. Usually it's easier to steal it and park it somewhere so they can see if it's still hot. If your car's so equipped you have good odds of getting it back whole during that cooling off period.

 

any idea how much lo jack runs?

I got lo-jack early warning installed for right around a grand. If the car moves without the keys, they call me.

 

Yeah.

 

i found this idk if it would help but here it is http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv...562450565.html

 

thnx god i have low jack on my rx7. If rx7 becomes the next big thing to be stolen, I don't think im ever going to park it outside =/

 

my car actually came with a early warning lojack system but i have to pay $99 a year..... still got the papers and stuff in my car too... dont think ill need it or use it "knock on wood"

 

Funny thing is, my brother told me he was going to put lojack on the car, but ran out of money

So painful.

 

That sux. I'll keep my eye out.

 

I saw the same engine but it looks like its been sitting for more than the time the car's been missing...IDK

 

Damn... to the o.p., I feel your pain bruh... its happening on the east coast too. This is depressing. The crosshairs are on the rotary community now.

 

^^ yup.. these cars are falling in the Classic Japanese cars category, so now fools think we wont miss them when they are gone..

 

I'm William and Johnson's brother. I feel bad because there were so many different scenarios that could have taken place. My neighbor called me and woke me up after what had already been a long day (was in johnson's car when we hit the wall earlier that evening) and said my bro's alarm was going off. I didn't go out to the street, but I looked out the front door and nothing. I wake up to another text message from my neighbor saying that the alarm is going off again, and to yells of "where's your car?!" 2010 has gotten off to a bad start so far. Sounds like a bad scene from a dude where's my car movie =\

 

yeah,i know what its like to wake up and ur car is Gone =(

But i got my car back =D like 3 days Later... Sometimes u gota love the police.... well when they arent pulling me over for my Exhaust.... lol

 

Low Jack is well worth it guys. Pretty much every Police, Sheriff, CHP in cali have LoJack recievers in their car, as well as most of the Helicopters. If your car is stolen and has lowjack, you will get it back. The thing is, you gotta report it stolen before the lowjack is activated. this used to be a problem as your car might get stolen in the middle of the night and you might not see it till morning. This is no longer a problem with the early warning system. If your car moves so many feet without your keys in the ignition (your keypad has a lowjack fob on it) you will get a text/phonecall/email ect. You immediately know your car is stolen and report it.

idk if this is anything important but im posting any 10th i see on craigslist

 

I'm looking into it right now. Thanks for the help. It might be my car actually. s4 tail lights(not the 10th AE ones), replacement? door(they broke my door handles), and mazda / rx7 symbols are white. Cross fingers.

Can someone call/email this guy for more pictures?


I emailed him already, but it'll probably work with more people.

 

I'll call in a few.
Thanks Robert

 

If someone can get a hold of the seller and find out if it has any of the odd details I mentioned, that would be great.

 

Did yours have a steering wheel like that?

 

any luck yet?

 

I just read the whole thread and I hope that is your AE! I really hope you get it back.

 

it's been 2 weeks, that's enough time to change a number of things on the car. The only way to check is through VIN and little details that are not easily hidden/removed.
