Bubba, you do not need to worry about someone stealing your beat-up CRX. The cars they steal are the JDM front Tegs, civics with FMIC, other stuff that has obvios mods that they can sell for good money.

I'm not worried bout that one... pretty much any dc teg... and even stock civics do... especially ex/si's

Every Civic in the cities gets stolen. True story.

not saying civics aren't good cars but i would think people in the cities have better cars to steal.. like mercedes, bmw's, jag's, etc...??

Bullshit. I was in MPLS about 6 years ago with a buddy and his 1995 Cutlass Ciera got stolen from a parking lot. It was found on blocks a month later completely stripped.

[harm]

sure, one single non-civic got stolen that year, but that's because Olds Cieras are HAWTTT. and a '95, too.. shit.. good thing I didn't know he had that one, I'd be in all sorts of trouble.

[hhn_jff]

haha my car is number 2 on the list. no wonder it got stolen.

[FG2]

When I lived in the Cities in 2001 (Coon Rapids, then Eden Prairie), my roommates mid-late 90's Ciera got stolen and they just carved gang symbols in the dash and ditched it a few miles away, a month or so later that same guys girlfriend (who lived in North Minneapolis) got her Taurus stolen.....they returned it to down the block from her house about a week later, and started it on fire.....a big fire..... In both cases, the police didn't seem to care, as it happens on a regular basis.... I wouldn't worry about driving a Civic/Integra to shop/hang out in Minneapolis, but I would worry if I lived in the cities and didn't have a garage.

If the vehicles were stolen in Coon Rapids and North Minneapolis, that's about right.

[banders]

My Fiances' brothers best friend and his girlfriend (who are from FF)got his Taurus car jacked in the cities. They got put in the trunk and shot, among other things.

Atleast she took things well. She now has a tattoo of butterfly wings around the scar from the bullet.

Civics and tegs arent that hard to steal... shit I could take my stack of honda keys and i'm sure if u'd put a few EF's in front of me i could get into at least a couple doors and maybe an ignition started... i've seen it done when kyle hopped in my old hatch and drove it around the block with a totally different key... Like they said on mnsc, what do u expect to happen when u drive cars that can be jacked with a penny and a screwdriver...

[hhn_jff]

I just have a problem with people not giving a flying shit about other peoples property. I just wish I could screw up their life as much as they have screwed up mine.

:lol: Shitty neighborhoods means shitty people that do shitty things.

BTW, a nice set of cameras and a PTZ is pimp shit. It sure is nice to sit on the couch and see what is going on in the yard or driveway.
