You've got to be kidding me. Man, if this is what it looks like, I'd be forming a lynch mob.

Saw a post like this a couple months ago. They propped the car up on a 2x4 that looked no bigger than a Subway foot-long.

Sorry to hear this about your car. Are those temporary tags? If I can't park in the garage, then the C6 doesn't get parked, period.

that is AWFUL!!!!! I'd be spitting angry. Matter of fact, with another car, I was!!!!!

Of course, they left my car on the ground and damaged a lot of things, too. $6500 later, everything was fine.

Good luck. Fill in your profile, tell us where this happened. Maybe someone can come over and hoist a brew with you.

Wheel thieves can't be wrong.... chicklets are worth big bucks.

let me guess your garage is full of about $500 worth of junk so your $50,000 vette can sit in the Driveway? My vette goes in the garage as soon as I get home no matter where I've been. Only time it sits in the driveway is when it gets washed. I live in a gated community and don't trust any neighborhood no matter where you live. Sorry that it happened to you, maybe you should clean out the garage this weekend.

That stinks real shame we still have scumbags who have to steal, and destroy the property of others.

what wheels and tires did you have on it? I can't believe all the treads lately where stock wheel are being taken. maybe its the tires that are in demand.
