Just in from Amy:
I left my Audi down near Harry’s Beach House, in front of 2137 60th Ave. SW. I left it at 4:45 pm today (Friday) and returned at 6:45 … no car.
I called, and the police called the towing companies, and there were no reports of it being towed.
It is a 2014 black Audi A7 4-door sedan, with roller derby and WSU bumper stickers. License plate BIF3757.
If you see this (or any other known stolen vehicle), call 911.
Did you notice any Flatbed trucks in that area when you parked? A $70k car like this cannot be “hotwired” it has am immobilizer system that prevents the starter/fuelpump/sparkplugs from even functioning if there is not the matching coded key/receiver. Theoretically if you had a VIN# of the vehicle you could get a replacement key from a Audi Dealership, but that is illegal to do in the case of steeling a car (and would cost the thief $XXXX of dollars) I think they will only sell a new coded key if they have the registration with your name on it to match.
Sorry, comment time is over.
