Stolen! Brilliant Red 1996 LSi!

.
My '96 was stolen from my parents' home in Fair Oaks, CA last night so please keep an eye out for part out/if you see it! Low miles so a lot of good parts on the car. Please call the cops if you find anything or message me!
CA plate 7FAS226

Thanks!
Ryan

Re: Stolen! Brilliant Red 1996 LSi!

I'm very sorry to hear that. No shortage of scum bags these days. It's probably punks going for a joy ride. Hopefully it will be recovered in good shape.

Nope, still missing.

More identifying info on the car:
-At time of theft it had Lexus F-sport wheels with Firestone Indy 500 tires on it.
-The sun visors are missing completely.
-It has a single exit exhaust out of the passenger side of the bumper as a stop gap between the muffler having been cut off previously and my having time to fab up a proper exhaust.
-VIN can be found in the registration section of the forum.

Stolen from Fair Oaks, CA.

Please keep a lookout guys! If not found, I'll be buying a green '96 in a week or so, but I'd like to find mine still.

Thanks,
Ryan

Re: Stolen! Brilliant Red 1996 LSi!

Still hasn't been found and I already had a one way ticket to CA to pick it up so I'm just going to hope it's found before November. In the mean time I'm going to scoop a 5spd Forester XT so that should be fun, if not as fun as the SVX would be. Hopefully Red gets found and then I've got a killer combo!

Re: Stolen! Brilliant Red 1996 LSi!

They found her! A little dirty but intact and somehow she still starts with the key! Arranging for her to be trailered from CA to MI and then I can install coilovers and promptly start planning for the inevitable 5spd swap. Thanks to all who kept an eye out!

Re: Stolen! Brilliant Red 1996 LSi!

So it was recovered in good shape. Great news! Will your insurance pick up the tab for towing or was it insured for collision only?

Collision only because it was only going to be driven maybe twice in California until I brought it to Michigan where I would have to convert it no-fault insurance anyway. Luckily it meant that I didn't have to deal with having to buy it back (although I may have profited that way.)
