That's really crappy. I've heard of a few Lancers going missing.
Someone in my city stole an EvoX off Mitsu's lot but fortunately left it ditched in a field down the road pretty much unharmed.
Seems like the anti-theft in these cars isn't the greatest.
I really hope you find it!!

i know a few people who had their TSX / S2000s disappearing in yorkdale lot. It seems to me that the thieves tow the entire car away, and probably loading it into an enclosed box shortly after.
the next car I get I'm definitely going to put some sort of GPS tracking device, and just repeatedly check the location of my car when I'm not in it. It's gonna b mad annoying, but better safe than sorry

Heard of people putting bussiness cards into the door panels behind the window. 
. From what ive heard this has worked to.
Get an alarm with a tilt sensor. Stops it from being towed.
Just curious with over $20K put into this car with mods and no thought of an aftermarket alarm? (not sure if it did have one)

even with the immobilizer a car is a car, electrical and mechanical, it can be wired in a few minutes to bypass and geter started. It takes even less time to tow it.
Still really sucks to hear. If its out driving around an I see it u better believe I'ma follow it then call the cops.

Sorry to hear. Keeping an eye out for sure. Hopefully some punk just took it for a joy ride and then ditched it somewhere.
No matter what you do these days if they want your car they will get it one way or another. Just how it is now.

i'll be on the look out for your car. i hate car thieves.. honestly cars are such personal properties that should not be touched by any non owner
