s2000 on fire

Details of the Incident
Happened in Richmond, BC at 1am (Location: eSpot)
Guy wearing ski mask
Broke window and ripped soft top
Threw something inside car to ignite fire
Took a sledgehammer and repeatedly beat the car until someone yelled at him, and then he took off
Car has well over $15,000 in mods including Volk RE30s, Js Racing widebody kit, Bride seats, Js Racing front end, Js Racing Drag Wing, Js Racing hood, etc.



EYEWITNESS ACCNT

so what happen was, I was about to walk out of the arcades was gunna say bye to a few friends then the fire caught my eyes, thru the glass door I saw a s2k with a J's Spoiler, so at 1st I thought it was mooman's gf's car like many thought. i panic'ed abit (2sec)and went to look for moo man, wasn't there at his usual place(5secs) so I went out and took a peek at it, there was a masked guy yelling and cussing while smashing the Front Driver's side fender. I couldn't think what to do I stood there for like 10seconds then realized it was Sam's car. then thinking sam comes to espot? so I quickly yelled "HEY WHAT THE ****!" the guy looks up at me panics abit then ran down the driveway where the bubble tea place is, as i was going inside to look for sam, I hear tires screeching (so that guy left by car) I ran to the counter told the staff sam's car is on fire call 911! and looked for sam! I couldn't find him and there wasn't anything we could do so yea we watched it about 5mins then sam suddenly appeared out of no where. by then the owner of mazda3 (felix) wanted to move his car away fast! then "boom!" there was a small explosion! so we're like leave it! leave it! and we were all just standing there watching the s2k burning and burning until the firemen actually came to put it out... so yeah that was about it.... yeah I know some people might ask why I didn't go stop that guy, but if you compared both our sizes you can tell I'd die if i went up to him, and yes I'm a tiny lil asian kid, and he's a huge guy who can toy a sledge hammer!

Somebody is upset with Sam, I wonder if the chick in the photo has anything to do with it?

Hard to imagine that being random.

That S2000 isn't my cup of tea, but it sucks that someone is so low to do that to someone else's car. You just don't f with another man's car.

What sucks most is that insurance probably won't cover any of those mods

why does it seem like it is parked pretty secluded in the back of a warehouse... and not visually in public??? no two-way alarm installed either?!?!

too bad there is no pics or vids of the guy doing it... oh wait but he was wearing a mask right>?

That definitely blows!

There was a guy up here who had a custom STI and liked doing the work himself, except he was an idiot, the car caught fire and burned to the ground one day when driving. The cause of the fire was an improperly installed fuel line. The real kicker was, this happened late last summer, it was around a 2004 STI, his payment was over $600/month, the kid was always broke and had let his insurance lapse. I don't know what all came of it, but pretty ugly situation no matter how you look at it.

Not sure what it was about... but definitely does not seem random. Someone seeked out his car and vandalized that car, and that car alone...
