I have officially joined the "Stolen GN Club". Sunday afternoon my 87 GN was taken from my work garage (Casino) that has roughly 20 surveillance cameras in it. I'm still kinda' numb about it all. I parked it at 11am and returned to an empty parking spot at 730pm. Contacted security and notified the police, but pretty much knew that it was a lost cause. They had me ID it on tape today (Monday) that it was my car being taken. It was taken at exactly 12 noon, so somebody had done there homework as far as knowing my schedule. I didn't see all the tape, but they said a black male approaches the car and is there a couple of minutes before it was taken. There was no glass on the ground, so I am guessing he slim jimmed it. I had just had some high end stereo equipment installed the Friday before, so my first thought was they made a duplicate key. But it shouldn't have taken a couple of minutes to get into it if he had the keys. The cameras that caught it being taken are too grainy to see anything clearly. Security was checking one camera that is focused to see the passengers as the cars are leaving the garage, so it should have a good look at him. I had filled it up the night before, so not only did I give them a 7 1/2 hour head start, I gave them a tank of gas too! No alarm or kill switch or stun guns or GPS tracking or guard dogs or other 'in hindsight' stuff ya'll are gonna' say I should have had. Now I get to start the fun part of dealing with my insurance(State Farm) and will probably get dropped.
Anyways, it's Louisiana tags KOG 505, but honestly, since he probably has run the hell out of it already and f'ed something up royally, I hope it doesn't get found.

I seriously think there is some sort of theft ring or maybe these low life scumbag motherfockers just see these cars as a perfect target because they are fairly easy to steal and they are rare (desirable).... Regardless of the reason this should serve as more motivation to get a daily beater and/or look into some sort of kill switches (for the guys that must drive them daily) as well as anything else that might prevent them from taking it....
