Default Inline Pro's car got jacked at the shop, broad day light

Here is the story:

Me and my friend Kwik2 came by Inline Pro to pick up my oil line kit. Before we got in, we looked at the RED HB with a big intercooler and I think Rota C8 rims in Bronze. So we walk inside and notice Two Spanish guys. One kinda tall, the other one kinda short, about 5 5'. The tall guy was talking about something about bringing in a block while the other guy was on his cell phone.

So then Stan comes out from the back and me and my friend kwik2 walk over to the garage and we start talking about the Hatchback. B20 Turbo. Then I ask him about the oil line and he starts to fabricate it. Then I noticed a 3rd spanish looking guy walk in the store. I forgot what he was doing. But me and my friend walked away from the garage door and we just browse around the place looking at the cool Turbos. I noticed one of the spanish guys was on his cell phone. Then we walked over to the garage opening and the Hatchback was GONE! But, we did not realize that it was jacked. My friend is like "Oh, that guy that just left, that's probably his Hatchback".

And just a few minutes ago, Stan told me that the car got jacked.
Kinda scary, because I did not hear the car leave or see any suspicious person outside or see any suspicious looking cars.

However, I think that the two spanish guys that were in the shop, were part of it because one of them was on his cell phone talking and laughing. I think he was looking around to make sure that nobody was standing near the garage and then called one of his home boys to tell him that the "coast is clear" or something.

It took less than 5 minutes for the car to get jacked!

No, Teds car, he works at inline. It's sad. Like I replyed in the other thread. If you see the car, call the cops and follow it, i will pay you back for gas money. It's a red 92-95 hatch with Inline Pro decals down the rear quater panels.

That's ridiculous...how the **** do you jack a car in broad day light in front of a damn shop. yet another Honda raped by ******* thieves MD/VA/DC people are really getting fucked!! So many thefts around this area, including mine, that all turn out bad. It's usually the same story when you get the car back, no rims, no motor, no nothing...Just when I thought thefts around here were slowing down, this happens and also EEK's car got stolen from baltimore. ******* thieves need to all go die somewhere!!

My B18C5 engine was jacked, engine stand and all out of my dad's shop in a small town in New Mexico. 2 Mexican guys did it, and we believe they were the ones that came back and bought the wrecked ITR a few weeks later, but did nothing about it. Bastards....

People need to stop stealing cars, all they're gonna do is chop and part it anyway. Sad.

Back then, about 2 years ago, the NOVA area was fine. Lots of imports. Nicely hooked up ones here and there. Now they are all gone ...

I was one of them. My car got jacked right in front of my house in 2002.

Nobody in the shop heard it take off. And there were about 3 people in the front of the shop, plus me and my friend.

Also if you live in NOVA area, make sure you have a clutch lock, alarm, removeable steering wheel, dead locks, and three dogs chained to your car

Oh, and also remove the ECU and Turbo (After you turbo timer it)

Doesn't anybody use some kind of security system? LoJack is good and so is that other one that has satelite tracking.

Sorry to hear about this, but if I owned a shop I'd have surveilance cameras.

BTW, the car looks almost bone stock. No bodykit. Just the front bumper grill cut out , lowered on Rota C8 looking rims.
