| Woman gets her stolen car back 3 years later and it's been modified http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_551604.html
NEW YORK (Associated Press) - A Brooklyn schoolteacher whose car was stolen three years ago has gotten it back -- totally souped up and unrecognizable.
Amanda Pogany's 1996 Honda was returned to her drag-race ready, with a new V-8 engine, manual transmission, leather interior, tinted windows and oversize tires.
Police found the car at an illegal chop shop and were able to trace it to Pogany even though the VIN number had been filed off.
Pogany had given up on ever getting the car back. She hasn't driven the new version of the Honda yet because she doesn't know how to drive a stick shift.
Better learn how to drive stick lol

That ain't a V-8, and I doubt their car is worth any more compared to before it was stolen.

Reminds me of the story from a few years ago where the NYC police found some guy's stolen Cadillac. Car was repainted, old motor was replaced with a bigger more powerful one. The 8 track player was replaced with a full soundsystem.

What a terrible article. No research at all, the Huffington Post is such garbage bag.

Reminds me of when Obsideon's Civic SIR was stolen, then found in the Fraser River a few years later. Police asked if he wanted it back! |
