Default I thought this day would never come...
My car has been stolen. It's a dark green '97 Acura Integra GSR. The car's completely stock other than the GS wheels, a crappy JVC head unit, a broken antenna, and a small crack in the windshield on the driver's side that I've been meaning to get fixed for months now...

This isn't my car, but it looks exactly like it. Same color, wheels, and so on:

I'll probably never see the damn thing again, but it's worth a shot. If those Canucks can find a Skyline, you guys can find my car. images/smilies/tongue.gif

Well, it is an Integra, one of the most stolen cars in the U.S. I hope your insurance is good!

Is there a forum dedicated to the Chicago area? I'm sure you might have some better luck if you pass it around something like that. I know there are a few members on here from Chicago, maybe they can pass on the word.

To be honest, I don't even want to go through the trouble. If some kids just took it for a joyride, it'll turn up somewhere. If not...

It's worth a shot. Most people don't do it for any reward, but just because they're good folk. If i lived in Chicago, I'd definitelly investigate every green Integra i saw.

I'm sorry to hear about it. Also, when I think about it, it's been a few days since my friend got his Trek 4300 stolen. It's an epidemic!

Go into every Chicago car forum you can, it has to come up somewhere. Sure Chicago is bigger than Calgary, but its definitely worth it.


When my parents car was stolen, we passed by it two days later. Two days after that the cops knocked on our door at 2 a.m. with our car and the asshole that stole it. He was "acting suspicious" so they ran the plates and viola.

Sorry to hear that. It looked like a handsome, well-kept fun little car too.

Clearly somebody else must have thought the same.

Damn this sucks, getting a car stolen is total suckage. But then again, with all the upgrades you did, who can say no to that. images/smilies/tongue.gif Everyone wants a cracked windshield and a broken antenna! People have killed for less images/smilies/tongue.gif

Seriously though, I hope they can find your car again in good nick. If someone used it for a joyride or just trashed it, i hope it's at the bottom of a lake, because then you'll be better off than having the police drop the soulless husk of what was once your car at your doorstep and receiving zero from the insurance.

images/smilies/comfort.gif I hope that insurance company is going to pay up quickly.

My dad had his car stolen about 8 years ago. That's unpleasant feeling to see empty parking place instead of your car. Provided you were sober enough to remember where you left it images/smilies/tongue.gif
