Guys,
I feel violated. My commuter car, a 1993 Integra was stolen right in front of my house. I was in the living room at the time. I hear a car start and was thinking, man, that sounds like my Greddy exhaust too. To my shock, when I looked out the front window, my car was gone.
Tracing my steps, I realized that I forgot to arm the car when I went back to get something from the trunk. I am positive that I locked the steering wheel club. It was a MOMO steering wheel too. I am surprised that they got pass that.
My question is it happened Saturday night at 12:30 am, and a police report is filed. The police were very responsive and came in two minutes. They said they're sending a search party right away. Now, should I cancel my insurance, cancel DMV, or what? Also, I am probalbly at a loss because I only covered one way, so anything that happens, it's my loss. What should I do?

Sorry to hear that man. The same situation happened to my friend. Got his GSR stolen and did not have full coverage. He was actually worse off. It was his only car. So no car for like 2 weeks. But couple weeks later, they found the car with the entire interior stripped, the motor pulled, his intake exhaust etc. gone. Only thing left was the chassis and the shell with the wheels. It was a big loss. The best thing is to wait and see if you get the whole car back. If not you can salvage that car when you get it back and get some money out of it. Then cancel insurance and inform dmv. Hope for the best, good luck.

Thanks.
I just don't want to see it if they do find it. I'll just take a loss. What should I do as far as procedure wise? Should I fill out any paperwork to release it or just tell DMV to take my name off?
