its salvaged because of theft. as that police report is filed and insurance is notified, that car will be salvaged forever.

Methinks it was an insurance job as well. Whoever took the parts knew the car and what to take.

Clearly this guy was doing the TL diet...
But then he realized his car was the 5at and decided to abandon all hope.

Even for 5 grand, its a good candidate for a project to get it up and running and have a REAL nice car...auto or not its still a Type S. You can still turn it around and make good money on it. Body seems to intact other than the one window. If I had the money and the means to transport it to Canada, I would.

amateurs...they left the entire aspec kit, headlights, trunk lip, tail lights, door panels....hell even the motor lol I agree on the insurance fraud theory. here in Miami that car would've been stripped clean.

Just headlights alone with the ballasts are good chunk of money! If it was an insurance job, they should have at least stripped the car completely and still make money on the side with a new ride replaced by the insurance company. Well its going to cost $400 to get it shipped to my destination at the border, just got a quote from them.
