Thats a train wreck, It's heatbreaking then Sh!t like that happens after working so hard with mods etc...

No doublt you wanted to tear the little worm apart, not sure what the deal is with the X now....

I guess it's covered but at what cost, looks like a write off to me and generally they pay peanusts... There are certainly a lot of salvagable parts for the pirates out there though...

Good luck with the new M6 Soldier and thanks for sharing your story...

Wow...glad you're ok. Sad state of affairs when carjacking punks are that brazen. At the very least, you administered some justice on the kid.

Wow! Glad you are OK and that the bastard didn't get your X. I am not going to second guess your judgement to go after the that a-hole either. Those kinds decisions are made in a fraction of a second and who knows what I would have done in the same situation. It is much easier to say "you should have just let them take it" after the fact. I actually wish you could have ripped him out or landed a few shots on him.

Good luck with your new M.

Those 4.8is wheels looked great on your X, by the way.

I hope you see him again and kick all of his teeth out of his head then cut his ears and finger off with a skill saw....

It sounds as if the vehicle was running while you were standing next to it. Is that correct? If so could you give a little more detail as to what you were doing? Might be helpful to everyone so we can avoid doing it too and minimize the risk of this happening to us.

Oh man, so sorry to hear about that. Glad you are okay. Cars can be replaced but you can't.

Too bad guns are not legal in NJ. I carry one everywhere. You never know. Sometimes I think it would be worth something like that happening to me just so I can catch them doing it!!! Can't wait to see the M pictures. Good luck.

That's a crazy situation to be in. Glad you're ok. Did you ID the getaway vehicle for the police? Hopefully the law will catch up to those low-life punks.

That really sucks! Everytime I'm at the carwash waiting for them to finish I think about someone trying to hop in and take off. Glad you're OK.

I'm in NJ also, where did it happen?
