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

:iagree: I want to know where exactly this happened also, since I go to a couple of different carwashes in NJ. Would be good to get a description of the punk so I know who to look out for. I am betting they'll try this trick again at a carwash, since that's when it's easiest to hop into an unoccupied vehicle and floor it. Please post a follow-up.

What did the cops tell you regarding this "crew"? Have they received other reports from the northern NJ area?

Me THREE..

Which car wash was this.. ?

I actually go to an "ole fashioned" place on Central Ave in Metuchen where you still sit in your car through the process. If I get out to inspect anything or help with the wipe down, I shut it off and take my keys.

What's happening with the X5..? Are you looking to part any of your mods or has the insurance company already swooped in..? Maybe I can help buy some gas for your new M6, especially since you are local to me...

I'm glad you are OK

ed

My condolences.....come back soon.

That will buff right out....

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.

Well, I actually had a good enough grip on the punk where I could have pulled him out of the car, but during the tussle, he was trying to reach for his waist area. for what. I don't know, but that was enough for me. its amazing how many things can go through your mind in a split second. my first thought was being shot because of a car. whether i survived or not, my principals remain the same, but its nowhere near worth it. i do believe in karma though

Yeah, what car wash was this and was it one of those self service places? Any chance the place caught any of this on tape and may be able to id the car with the punks in it on video?
