My Integra GS-R was stolen in January of 2000. I got it back later the same day, stripped of many bits (wheels, ECU, steering wheel, radio, etc..) and with some damage from being left on bricks when they stole the wheels. The little theft ring was caught after stealing a Ferrari. They were careless with fingerprints on my car and many others and were charged with over a hundred thefts.

Progressive spent two months refusing to authorize repairs while trying to prove that I stole my own car. It only ended when the Detective in charge of the case called them and yelled at them (the Detective was so nice).

I loved that car. It was my first nice, quick car. and I'd driven it all over the US. I never got that feeling back. I traded it in for an RSX-S the next year shortly after they first arrived on the market.

Best wishes, OP. I hope you find your next car as soon as possible.
