Hope your car ends up safe with you again. You barely had time to get used to your SC too. It does seem very fishy that you just picked up your SC and it is stolen soon after.

It is my second SC. Yeah will know in about another hour. Just getting out of a meeting, and meeting the detectives, to identify the car.

My other SC has the 18X10 rear, running 285s in the rear.

GOOD NEWS: car has been recovered! Will provide all details later.



Will be seeking legal action against the parking lot company.

I can't say too much right now. Still dealing with PD.

Bare bones fact: Car is exactly as it was last week. 0 miles has been put on the car. No dings/dents.

Will update post tomorrow with further details.

And I am being charged 785.97$ to get my car back

This is just a d!@n shame. What's' up with SD theese days. I'm glad to hear you got it back. It's just wrong to mess with a man and his car! Let us know the rest once you and the Lex are reunited.

I just got my SC400 a month ago after 6 months of searching. Last Sunday around 11am I heard an alarm going off. Didnt think much of it. That is until I went to leave. Turns out it was my alrarm. Someone stole my gold "L" off of the trunk. It's not so bad that the emblem is gone. I'm ordering a new full set anyway. The really bad part is that they f!@#$d up my paint!

Good to hear you got your car back intact and in good condition. Did the parking lot try and run a towing scam on you? I know that's been a problem here in SD.

Glad the car is

This reminds me of a towing company-lot scam that was going on up here a bit back. They'd tow cars to collect on the impound fees, citing that the driver was illegally parking by not using the businesses the lot was designated for. Even if the tow was not legit, the owner still had to pay the release fees of some sort.

Yep, that was happening here in Texas a lot.. Parking lot gets the kickback, etc..

So they flatbedded your car out of the lot. Feel fortunate that was the situation rather than an outright theft.
