[Hawaii] Bad news for Mike W.

I just read that Mike Ward's (fellow MINI owner and MINI racer) custom G35 was stolen last night from SONIC (they customize it and use it for shows).

**** WIDEBODY G35 STOLEN!! ****
CASH REWARD FOR ANY INFORMATION LEADING TO WHERE THE CAR IS!
This car is a one of a kine car... Not hard to Miss it.
The car was stolen at around 2AM last night. Last seen going up Kalihi. Police reports that a Squad car tried to turn around to pull the car over, but it just booked it.

Mac - not the drive-in fast-food joint. This Sonic is a tuner shop.

Oh - had my hopes up for a moment

sitting here and thinking about it. How in the hell do you run from the cops when there is no where to really run to?

momentary hide and seek possibly, but its not like you are going anywhere.

OK, hope it can be fixed/repaired soon. Better than having to start all over again. Sounds like a theft by non professionals (drug related crime).

Too bad there wasn't some sort of starter disable feature. Did they drive the car out with keys or was it flatbedded out of Sonic?

I personally have not talked to Mike nor Sonic, so not 100% sure, however, what I read on FH (suppose to be posted by someone from Sonic) was that the thief walked into Sonic, picked out the keys, started the car, and took off.

I've talked to Mike - What stuff they didn't take they maliciously damaged. He said the car was trashed/destroyed so bad he doesn't know if he'll fix it.
