Car Stolen/Wrecked/Gone
 

My car 3 weeks ago almost, was stolen by the guy who was painting it. It was involved in a pursuit that involved around 15 crusiers at the end.

A Sunfire plowed into him in an intersection as he began to run. He continued on that heavy damage at speeds up to 160km down markman rd. He caused another accident involving a honda civic and after that the chase was called off.

He was later found trying to change a tire he blew. Well obviously it wasn't going anywhere but i guess on shear determination he tried. The cops surrounded him and he had to be beaten down 3 times and smashed on the hood of my car to put the cuffs on. He faces at least 7 charges.

Here are some pics. RIP.

The car was almost completed. He was going to paint it that weekend. I still have no idea what he was thinking.

ouch that really sucks man!!! what did you end up doing with the car?

Claimed it and got a fair settlement. Its a total loss so it will be sold for scrap. im actively looking for another one. I am hooked on teh supra. I want another one before summer

man, that sucks ass.. was the painter dude private.. Gotta hate it when you think you can trust people but you can't..

i'm sure you'll find oue quick

yeah i got an 88 turbo cant wait till summer!!!!!

Listen, im not trying to be a prick..but..why would he try to steal it?!?

Did he mistake it for an MK4 somehow?

whatta en idiot...

hah no. We don't know why he did that. He was impaired and has a suspended license. So he probably went out possibly upset at his gf and my car was the only vehicle. Don't ask me why he went to markham. My car was in his garage in Sutton!!! Hes ed his life up hardcore. Hes going to be facing some time.

Just goes to show you can't trust anyone. My car was probably just in the wrong place at the wrong time :smilie_da

agreed...sorry for ya loss man

zlatko i see your point but if you really learn the mark 3s history and craftsmanship you will see that its a beast !! (except for the HG problem :P)

but yeah im sure that guy didnt bother about any history he was probably just plastered out out his mind and decided to be g*y!

supramanz if your gonna get another supra pickup a turbo you wont regret it!! theres actually a supraclub which is www.torontosupraclub.com i am a proud member (i hope this isnt advertising or anything sorry guys) you will find a lot of stuff on there and info.

yeah im Boost4Brains on there. Im going to look at a 92 turbo up north for sale. it has a new jdm motor and the HG blew on the guy so I want to pick it up and rebuild it.

Its red, targa, shadow grey int., Turbo, With the red package and mkiv style rims. Man i can't wait I know how you feel. Spring is getting close!

yeah ive seen you on the site now that you told me your nick. im "moilous"

a 1992 is a really good find! one great upgrade is the upgraded speaker enclosures to fit the 6" speakers. when you say "shadow grey" you mean charcoal/close to black?

I think ive seen a few of your posts too.

Yeah shadow grey is pretty much black. 30k on the new motor but it has a bhg. If I have to rebuild then so be it. That way ill at least no it was done right.

and I didn't know about the 6" speakers? wow. do they come with those? or aftermarket 6" can fit?

man, sorry to hear about the car either way.

Guy seems to have had a death wish of some sort..
