Default LA High Speed Chase - Stolen F Type

I feel sorry for the owner of this black F Type in LA -

Hopefully the damage isn't too bad. Car has some unique history now.

So, if my car is rolling along and I open the door, it throws itself in park...Maybe that doesn't happen above a certain speed?

This confirms my suspicion that blacked out trim is not a good look, imagine if that chrome was poppin' right now!!!

Looks like whoever jacked it has done it before considering he escaped in a perfect spot and will not be found.

Default Worthy of watching on big screen TV

Hi Guys,
I watched the video on a 72 inch flat screen television. The car has the center exhaust mufflers. Also, the car has the Jaguar add on rear spoiler. You can see the brake calipers are red color.
It's amazing how clear the news helicopter video camera captures the footage from such a far distance.

So, after the car ghost rode into the back of the van I figured it was over, but that guy took off. What's he hiding in the van?

Prospective owner?
Perhaps he could not get a test drive from his local dealer?

Gas cap/door open the whole time. I'm surprised the wind didn't didn't close it at 120mph.

I guess he (or she?) did not pay attention to the CEL?

Default Question about the word "stolen"

Hi guys,
can the F Type sports car be stolen from a parked (fully shut off) position?
Or was this car ,& driver a victim of a ruthless carjacking crime with a hand gun being pointed at your face. I think the latter.

Anyone ...
