Car stolen but got back

This tuesday some guy decides he wants to take my car. Not only did he take it but he ran from the cops and nicely parked it in a tree. I am not happy about but it could have been worse i think. Here are a couple pics of the car and the part out.

well i guess it proves that the security system didn't do its job. Nowadays you can't leave your car unlocked anywhere, even in your own driveway.

Sorry to hear about the S/C'er. The front looks similar to when I put my into a phone pole. Look at it this way. You have a back up S/C for the turbo!

Is it me, or do a lot of us S/C'er have oil residue all over the alternator and A/C? This is like the 5th time I've seen that.

Yeah I hope you beat the living daylights out of the guy, and then use that saw and saw off his arm so that he'll never steal another car... or make it so he'll never be able to drive another one. But then you'll need to saw off his leg too, but since he could still use his other leg to step on the gas, you'd better chop both his legs off.

Looks like it was a beautiful Max. The guy that took it is an idiot, especially if he thought he could outrun a police radio.
