Default Stolen!! 02 gs300 sd **found**

Never thought this day would happen but my '02 GS300 SD was stolen from my driveway on May 1st. Car was towed early morning. Made a police report but still no word. Car was taken from Paterson (Hillcrest section by Totowa) NJ. Hopefully it turns up but i doubt ill ever see it again. Dont have full coverage so its a total loss if not found. Keep an eye out guys, any help is greatly appreciated.







a couple things that will make it stand out is the brand new bridgestone turanza serenity tires, all red tail lights (red turn signal instead of amber), rare oem all weather floor mats in dark grey (not the ones in the pic).

thanks CL, hopefully i can recover from this.

I swear I'm scared of NJ. Ever since an S4 was stolen right from under me and a bunch of friends of mine noses (literally right next to us in a parking lot) makes me think how can I ever go to NJ and leave my car out of sight? Hope you car turns up in one piece. Good luck.

thanks guys. yeah took me a year of searching to find this car and less then a year later shes gone. i dont have full coverage because the rates are so damn high but i wish i would of found a way to just pay it. im glad i didnt get around to modding it because i would be even more pissed. no one heard the tow truck inside the house due to recent renovations (sound proof walls -___-) the reason why i say it was towed was because of the marks on the driveway.

Sorry to here this bro. B (sakataj) informed me of this thread and asked me if I knew where the sport design interior I just bought came from. I informed B that the interior which I bought came out of a silver GS which got hit hard on the front drive's side. The Owner showed me the car, registration, accident report and the scares to prove the accident. supposedly a little old lady turned into a one way in brooklyn and hit him hard. The car then spun and the tail hit a pole. By the damage thank GOD both of them walked away from the crash. The car also had the factory Navigation screen in which I missed due to another customer coming before me.

I just wanted to clearify my purchase due to B bring this to my attention. I don't want anyone to speculate or assume anything. Again sorry for your loss and I'll keep my eyes open.

Damn as a new GS owner myself I'm sorry for your loss. I'll never start modding my car until I have garage space. That car is so clean I'd be vigilant in getting it back. Even though the fanciest alarm couldn't stop a tow truck some sort of gps tracking would be vital to recovering this car w/ only liability coverage.

Sorry to hear about this, but one question. Did you owe anything on the car?
