I know that it may not be an appropriate place for this post, but I know that we have NSXers that own M3's also. Not sure about the location, but I'd imagine that it took place in SoCal. I can totally feel his pain.

Hello everyone,
Late last night my race car was stolen right from inside my trailer which
was parked in front of my house. The thieves broke into the trailer by
busting the entire locking mechanism off of the rear fold down door. They
simply cut the straps (the car was tied down) and took the car (Probably
rolled it down the street and towed it away).
I know this is a long shot but if anyone sees this car or any parts for sale
from what sounds could be from this car, please let me know. It took 2
years to build and I only attended a couple of races with it. It's hard to
believe that so many years of blood, sweat and $$$ could be stolen right out
from underneath you in a minute.
Here are the details of the car:
1988 E30 M3
VIN: WBSAK0306J2196258
#95 or #75 on Hood/Doors
Red Exterior/Interior
1 Sparco Evo Racing Seat - Black
Full Weld In Cage (Painted Red)
16" BBS RK Wheels w/Kumhos
Custom Exhaust System w/DTM Tips
Split Second Intake System
FULLY MODIFIED S14 RACING MOTOR.
All the BMW CCA Club Racing required Banners and decals.
Tirerack Banners on the front and rear windshield.
The interior had been FULLY gutted:
No rear bulkhead in the passenger compartment.
The doors were gutted out.
The only things in place were a seat, wheel and dashboard.
Hood is pinned down and the center hood pin is off center.
Rear Shock Towers have been boxed in for custom cage mounting points.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Please spread the word.
Thank you,

PS - Now I wish I had Lo-Jack or something...
