Mistic Cobra Stolen
Here Locally in Paducah Ky, Some goons broke into the local FORD dealership and attempted to steal a Vert Mistic Cobra. They somehow got the keys, hopped in, drove the car through some glass doors ( just like Gone in 60 Seconds **** here )and then DROVE THE CAR DOWN A FLIGHT OF STAIRS OUTSIDE THE DEALERSHIP I wish that this link had some pics on it. There were a few on the nightly news today, They got the car outside the building and left it there. Junked it. Didnt even try to drive away in it.

Damn, I'd be pretty pissed if I came to work and found that. Why would they even bother, I'd rather steal the rims and parts off it to sell as opposed to just trashing it and making a loud mess. Thats pretty studid that they didn't have a camera/camera's in especially the showroom though.

Yeah, it is stupid that they dont have cameras. I have a buddy that works at the stereo store/install shop across the street. He is going to check his parking lot surveillance tape today to see if he can see the dealership parking lot. Said he would turn it in to the cops if theres anything on there just so he can maybe help catch the nut jobs that did that.

Why would you go through all that trouble and then just trash the car up?
Do they think they will catch the people that did it?

I have no tolerance for people that treat cars like that, especially mustangs. Did they really think they could pull off driving away in a mustang that sticks out like a sore thumb. Thats just ignorance.
I can only imagine what it looked like when they were done with it. Makes me mad just thinking about it.

I think it would be safe to say that the people that did it are definitely NOT mustang lovers. Just some idiots that saw an opportunity and **--ed it up! It's one thing to steal a car like that...another to trash it. Damn those kids....
