I left for work at 8:15 this morning and it was in the car port. The wife (Mytigereyes) came home at 5:30 and my Tib was gone. :bigcry:

Maybe you got picked for that show "Overhauling" or whatever.....lol.


Seriously though, I hope you find it in one piece with everything still there.

That's awful!!! Hope you find it fast, or it won't be worth finding.........did you talk to all the neighbors?
Everybody was at work at the time. I am usually the last person to leave for work.

Aw man...that's kinda weird, my brother in law sold his car a few months ago to a kid down the street and that was stolen about a week ago too. He really showed off the engine work though and people were taking pics, so easy to figure out if you know what's under the hood. I hope you find it all in one piece!!!

Sorry to hear that Scott! I can't remember if your Tib was stock or had mods. Did you have just the stock alarm on it? I hope they find it soon!

I encourage everyone here to install an aftermarket alarm. When I was working nights sometime tried to break into mine. I came out to find handprints all over my passenger side door, window and roof and a mark on the rubber stripping where they tried to get in the window. The next day I had an alarm installed and those sob's came back and boy were they in for a surprise! The alarm went off and 5 of us girls went rushing out the door!

Also if you have removed the emblems and replaced them with the "T", your Tib is also a target for theives because most people don't know what the car is. A couple of guys in a car behind my husband at a stoplight attempted to carjack mine during the day on a busy street! The light turned green just in time!

That suxs big time, hope you find it asap. I got a Satellite tracking system and a starter disable, and an alarm on mine.

Exactly. Your Tuscani was low & black. I remeber those Eibachs. Everyone near LA eyeball those Black GT V6's with Lowered springs if you can tell. give a shout out!

jesus, that sucks man. keep us posted on whether they find it or not. Unfortunately, usually if it goes past 48 hours, and you do find it, it wont be in that city, and it will be stripped. But hopefully they fine it before then. If they catch the guys, make sure they throw the book at them.
