You own a Integra, you're begging to have your car stolen. That's like the number one most stolen model.

Just sayin.

Nooope, the car couldn't be worth more than $1500 anyway. It had a few dents here and there, and a salvaged title.

Definitely hoping to get it back though. My dad's 1984 Toyota pickup truck was stolen from our garage a few years back, and it was found a few days later.

A friend of mine had his Honda Accord stolen (this was years ago) and he got it back a few days later. The strange thing is he had 4 tickets to the Long Beach Grand Prix with Super Photo Tower access and full pit access in the glove box and they were still in there when he picked the car up from impound!!! Talk about lucky! They were worth about a grand total.
 
That sux. Having your car broken into or stolen is pretty common at BART stations unfortunately. Which station did it happen at? Some have worse records for this than others.

the accord, civic, and camry all top it on the list, but i would imagine that's largely because there's just so many of them out there in the first place. adjusted for the number in existence, i'd bet the integra is stolen more often. the Bay Area also has special demand for integra parts based on the retarded ricer scene. i wouldn't own one here, that's for sure.
 
File a report. Be prepared to take it back from a towing place. Some 1 will find it abandoned on a side road. You should check often to make sure you won't get charged crazy towing/storage charges.
 
Man that sucks, hope you at least find the car...if not the thief too. Earlier this month I parked my car in 50ft front of Starbucks with 20 people drinking coffee outside at around 9pm. I come out 45mins later and my car door is open. Luckily nothing was taken...I'm glad it wasn't stolen. I would have been out a fair share of money.

I drive a 96 integra, thank goodness its a regular automatic. That generation is notorious for car thefts, it's one of the most popular ricer cars. I also hear the GSRs never had the VINs imprinted on the engines, making them difficult to trace.

My 1999 integra that got jacked was a regular automatic as well. 🙁 Make sure you have some sort of theft deterrent.
 
I had my car stolen once...cops recovered it NINE MONTHS later. Apparently the guy had parked it legally on some street they never checked, and it wasn't until someone complained and had it towed that they realized that it was stolen. Amazingly, they didn't trash it. I was lucky.

Wow thats crazy. lol.
 
My parents had a 97 Integra GS-R, owned it for about 6 months before it disappeared from our driveway in the middle of the night. It was never found, parts are probably in tons of rice rockets all over the US.
