2009 328i Wagon Stolen in Los Angeles

Nadie · 02-15-2019, 09:57 PM

I'm looking for some help here.

I bought this beautiful 2009 328i Wagon back in 2013 - I LOVED this car!
I had planned to keep it a long time.

It is literally one-of-a-kind.

The only change from the photos at the original thread is I replaced the rims with black Rial X10 18" wheels. It had just under 90K miles.

On Wednesday Feb 13 at noon, on a street of small businesses in San Pedro, CA (near the Los Angeles harbor), a "Repo type" truck backed up to the rear of my car and swooped it away within seconds. The truck was tan with tinted windows and no markings. Witnesses who knew it was my car came to alert me the second the truck pulled up but it was gone in literally 15 seconds. Slick operators.

If anybody has any suggestions on actions I might take to hunt down these vermin

, please help! Are these cars among those that get shipped off to foreign lands?

If nothing else, please keep an eye out for the car. Any leads would be appreciated.

I can't figure out how to post some of the photos to this thread but there are tons of photos at the link I posted.

It's a beauty - Barbera Red Metallic. Damn. :-(

Wow, that sucks. Any updates on locating the car? Must have been a nice car to be stolen like that.

Keep an eye out on craigslist for any of your parts, sorry this had to happen to you.

Yeah SD, ... it was one of a kind.
No news yet. I've got a lot of tentacles out there looking out for it.
But as each day goes by, I'm less optimistic. But, still hoping.

Zareh - thanks. Watching craigslist is a good idea.

Wow I live in LA too.. this is something you hear in movies.. I can't believe it actually happened.

I hope you find this Nancy. I drive around a lot in West LA so I'll keep an eye if I ever see it. Very small chance, but hey I'll let you know.
