PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU SEE THIS CAR ON THE ROAD OR IF SOMEONE IS SELLING PARTS. EVEN IF YOU SEE AN ABANDONED STRIPPED SHELL.



White 88 GXL n/a with white 10th ann. Turbo rims.

One of the rims was missing a cap and another rim had a large gash near the tire bead from hitting a curb.

Black trim.

Drivers side fender was crinkled/damaged.

The front bumper was cracked on the drivers side and the signal lens was damaged.

Right side passenger door was damged/wrinkled. Everything else on the car was in perfect condition. Engine bay looked like it came brand new from factory. Interior was perfect / blue with blue seats. Carpet blue.



I live in Farifield, CT

It was stolen friday night after 2:30 am. So I guess thats Saturday morning, but I still think of it as friday.

It was stolen out of my driveway in Fairfield, CT. Surrounding cities where it could be spotted or someone selling the parts: Bridgeport, Norwalk, Stamford, Westport, Darien, Danbury, New Haven, Hartford. I am leaving out a bunch of towns, but those are the main ones.



I am hoping they are stupid enough to try and sell the parts on ebay or on a forum.

Please keep an eye and ear open about my car. I dont care if its already stripped, I just want to catch who did it. Sorry, I dont have any pictures of it.



Thanks alot

Jeremiah

MY CAR WAS FOUND! The bridgeport police found it in Bridgeport on Madison Ave/ Harral. I picked it up today and NOTHING WAS BROKEN OR SMASHED! I lucked out on that one. I have a feeling it was towed to bridgeport because the ignition was not touched. I dont know if there is a way to steal the car without damgaing the ignition. If there is a way, please let me know so I can prevent this from happening again. I'm sure other people would be interested in that kind of info. I am also going to do a search tonight on how to install a kill switch. If anyone knows how to do it already, please let me know.



Thank you everyone for saying they would keep an eye out.

Oh, if anyone knows some shaydy people in that area that own RX7's, please let me know. I'm going to try and get the car printed so I can find out who didi it.

UPDATE:



I found out that it was my landlord that towed my car out of here. She was trying to strongarm me into leaving. I had a feeling it was her because the Monday after the weekend, she served me with eviction papers. I just had no way of proving it. The police did a little investigating for me and her lawyer actually ratted her out. Now she is really screwed.



On a happier note, it looks like it is starting to get warmer out. This means I will be back to detailing cars full time very soon. I own my own detailing business called SHINE DETAILING. Some of you in CT may have seen my flyers and business cards at your local bank or super market. I offer $25 referrals to everyone that brings me a new client. Refer me to 2 people, thats $50..you get the idea. So if you or anyone you know could benefit from getting their car detailied, let me know. I will give you $25 cash or give you a credit towards detailing your car. Refer me to 5 people and thats a FREE detail. Please e-mail me at ShineDetailing@hotmail.com for more information.



Thanks again to everyone that had a lookout on my car.



Jeremiah
