I put this in the Northwest Forum so maybe they can spot the car. But I know it will be of interest to the whole group. Here's a link to some information and pics of the car.

That's the first time I've heard of one being stolen. Anyone else?

Seen a couple stolen right off our lot. One was a red anniversary car. The tires got slashed, gang type graffiti painted all over it, and the radio/cd player *yanked* out of the car, pretty much destroyed the console and middle part of the dash.

A year or so ago, on the Yahoo site, there were a couple of people who reported stolen SVXes.

Stolen SVX's?

I wish we had police reports describing how these SVX's where stolen. Its information would be usefull in preventing other SVX owners from getting their cars stolen too. After all the time and labor I have put into my SVX, I wouldn't know what to do if my car got stolen! -Greg

Interestingly enough, one of them was stolen from a dealer's lot while awaiting repair. Not THAT'S just slightly agitating.

Funny isn't it? Cars are stolen every minute of the day, but when it's a SVX, it feels "personal".
It's hard to remember that our SVX's are just cars, and not living entities . . . right?

It sounds like the thefts have been joy riders. I can't imagine much of a market for stripped parts. Bill
