Re: Stolen Car-99 Honda Civic SI

there is a 2000 that looks alot like the one in that pic (same missing parts) on ebay that is the same color and a SI. pretty stripped powertrain and alot of interior but if it is stripped then you might be able to use the one on ebay as a parts car.

Keep a good attitude. I know a guy who had a SI that was pretty modded and the cops found it stripped but after looking around all of the parts were there but the motor and trans, the theives hadn't been able to take all the parts they got off so the cops waited around and sure enough they showed back up! The guy didn't have insurance but he did get his car back... just in a TON of pieces.

and what kind of car did they show up in? Pretty crazy to show up to steal a car in a stolen car. Also I like how some dealers will let you take a car out on your own, mabey just start copying their licence / taking a poloraid so if it happens again you will have a pic, alot of dealers down here do that.

A lot of them are like that.

People buy their car back from the insurance company and sell them for project cars.

Buy the car back for $2000 and sell it on ebay for $3500, and you got another $1500 to spend.

Plus, half of them were blue, so that doesn't mean much.

<- Glad he drives a lowly 97 civic ex.

That would only help if they find the car, which hasn't happened yet.

You are misunderstanding what I am saying. "Theft recovery" or otherwise stripped down civics are pretty common, so finding a stripped blue Si really doesn't mean anything.

I am willing to bet there are a dozen of them for sale on the internet right now that you could find within about 5 minutes.

Also, if you want to sell a car for a track project, which a lot of these stripped down cars are used for, A title isn't always required because the thing won't ever be registered or insured.

Re: Stolen Car-99 Honda Civic SI

When the beat down is over I'd love to get in a few cheap shots while they are down. Maybe for some real torture we could have Tauni talk to them for a few hours? ehhh, Just a thought. Keep us posted Steve. Hope they get those fuckers.

I think he is SELLING the Sentra to the guy. I believe that he owns a dealership.

Another horror story of a Honda/Acura.
