Damn that sucks! I'd love to comfort her in this ..hard time.
That is horrible!
They didn't just strip the car, they cut the poor thing apart!! :(
-John
man that really sad to hear i know shes had this car for a long time. i dont see why they chopped it into pieces after stripping it,someone must have really hated her
and the prıce of a stock mkiv tt wıll now top 50k
I hope she had the extra insurance to cover it. We do that with all of our cars. I couldn't imagine the pay out on my satin black car since it's a 91 base 3000GT without and "agreed value" policy :lol:Quote:

That car (regularly street driven, BTW) went 8.5 @ 176 at WCF with diff issues and it sounded like they were going to make a run for the record. According to Jess it went quicker and faster last Sunday and then popped a freeze plug out of the block which shut them down for the day. Darin's shop was full so they parked it over night at her condo and sometime between 10pm and 4am at was whisked away; evidently flat-bedded with the slicks and skinnies still on it.
fuck people who do this, I hope they catch them .
Agreed. She had more than 100k invested.Quote:

Wait, what's that you say? She had recently blown the engine, and her precious car was parked in the street? The car had full coverage 'agreed value' insurance? She has a GTR now?
Now this?

^^LOL Love the haters... If you knew your ass from a hole in the ground, you'd know that rick guy is a slandering worthless fuck who's been banned from every forum he's ever been a member of, and that is all complete bullshit. And a popped freeze plug is not a blown engine..... And no... She didn't have a stated value policy, just a 'regular' auto policy which means she'll recoup what... 20-25k?
As for her old car... Small accident, huh?

if they try to sell some parts it should be easy to catch them. if the police even care..guys on a supra forumn should watch for some of these parts..
This is the work of professionals..

I saw the pictures and could not believe my eyes, not because the extent of the chop but the fact that that car is sitting in the exact same lot that my built turbo s2k was a month ago chopped in half. The people that took my car either cut a key or put it on a trailer and had it totally stripped in under a day. It got taken from my apartment building in Winter Park and i'm not really sure if its that close but I recognized the lot immediately in the picture. If you live in central Florida and have a highly modified car you had better put it in a locked garage because this kind of stuff has been happening there with increasing frequency and it seems that these thieves are pretty professional.

Wow, thats crazy
Initial reports were that it was in a trailer, so its not like it was out blowing in the wind...
...dunno if that helps, or hurts the insurance scam conspiracy though?!?
Insane to have a street driven car like that without an agreed value insurance rider.

A lot of insurance companies still don't offer it.Quote:

My homeowners insurance company (Allstate) has been trying to get me to switch my cars over for the last 2 and 1/2 years, but no agreed value option, means I won't switch. Finally got a call from them today, saying they are looking into getting me agreed value on my cars since they just changed some of their policy options and guidelines on agreed value, etc.
I know a lot don't offer, but there are plenty that do. So, you find one that does. Sink that kind of money into a car, that sees the streets often...got to have it. It's just asking for it, being as high profile as she is, with a car built to that extreme. A moving target, if you will. Not that I'm condemning her at all, this situation sucks big time.
I had a ton of money in my Stealth, but it never saw street duty, and was always in the garage at IPS so it was covered under their insurance. Had I brought it home, that would've been the 1st thing I did, get it properly insured.
Jeremy
I agree with you completely. Playing with fire, not having agreed value insurance on a car like that.
LOL. Love the internet white nights and leg humpers who:Quote:

Also, if it isn't a scam, why slice the car into pieces? Regular thieves who just want to fence high value parts aren't going to waste time cutting a car into wedges. They'll strip it, dump it, and GTFO.
However, cutting the car into pieces guarantees an insurance payout.
At the very least it's highly suspicious. But since it's some 'pretty girl' on the internet, the leg humper brigade gives her a free pass. :lo5l:
I've known Jess for years. She didn't organize to have her car stripped for the insurance money. She makes good money, and is just not the type to do something like that.
Get your head out of your ass Jeff and stop making assumptions because she's a "pretty girl" with a highly modified car.
yeah, jeff...be careful. if you piss off the GZP & leg-humping company they keep, you become unpopular very fast. ;)
Having your vehicle sitting on a trailer is worse than having it sitting on the ground. Much easier to steal. Unless you have that trailer seriously locked down. I can back my truck up to a trailer and be gone with it pretty damn quick.Quote:

Last I heard she had over $150k into that car, so while it's possible this may have been staged, I would say it's unlikely. However, it is odd that they cut the car up like that IMO. Only reason I could see thieves doing that is to make the pieces easier to dispose of, rather than having an entire chassis laying somewhere.
Either way, it's a bad end for a car.
In the old days, they used to shoot horse thieves, but today, car thieves don't get punished seriously enough for them to quit. I'm glad I can afford a place with a garage. At least I know my car is safe when it's home.
seems to be a common theme to cut up the chassis/frame
2005 Ford GT Stolen and Recovered at Chop Shop - Rides.com
the parts i see cut up are not the parts worth much, quarter panel, doors .. the money would be in the motor,mods, interior, audio etc. it looks like they took the valuable stuff ..maybe picture does not show everthing
Yikes that sucks... I'd be choked if it was my car. I just don't see why a swimsuit model who probably makes triple digit figures would orchestrate an insurance scam either.
What to do now.. Time to build another one I guess.
Agreed value for a $100+ Supra? Not sure how insurance works in your country, but there isn't an insurance agency in Australia that would do an insane figure like that for a Japanese sports car. It's old, parts are hard to get.
Also - I don't want to add to the conspiracy debate, but leaving that car outside, unguarded and unprotected is just crazy, regardless of how full a shop is.
Isn't there a FB thing going around about this gal?
Scotty
this. wtf would you spend 6 figures on modding a car and not even have a fucking garage to put it in? that's beyond retarded in my book.Quote:

how could they sell the engine from a supra? salvage yard,craigslist,ebay, i think if the police wanted to find them it would not be to hard.. why not start by checking auto-parts.com to see if any salvage yards have a supra engine or some of her other parts ... then again the police would even want to catch them not just file a report.. when i parted out a 2004 gto and the guy took the parts to a salvage yard they did not even ask about it.. but if you take a complete car they want the title.
just looked at car-part.com and i was surprized as there are a lot of supra engines there..
No shit :lo5l:Quote:
