          Most of the time all you have to do is take the wheels, they are worth more than the rest of the car.

              Hey, Memphis, you know, we still have the Mercedes keys from the last boost.

              Hey! Those cars are at the police impound. Okay? The police impound. You want us to go there and start stealin' cars?

              Well... Yeah.

                    These are not Honda Civics.
                    This is an E30
                    a car they say is unstealable.
                    Yeah, unless you get the laser-cut transponder key...

                        Thing is BMW is now saying that well, you're screwed. There's nothing you can do. Sorry. All that laser-cut business seams like a load now doesn't it?

                              Thats the beauty of intalling EWS3 on an e30, looking up the vin isn't going to do a theif any good.

                              That and my car is a manual. That's gotta be a theft deterrent to the average american by itself.
