Strange activities
I was just outside of work having a cig, when a silver 2nd to current gen Eclipse/Talon drives up Keawe Street (Mauka direction) and turns into the CompUSA parking lot and reverses out. I watch as the driver (local looking guy) looks at my car, and I noticed the passenger has a video camera and its filming or taking pics of my car. I got the license place number of the car JVG-XXX.
With the recent incident of the burn to a crisp WRX, and the upcoming carshow. I have learned from the past (friends cars getting stolen) as the carshow gets closer car thefts increase, this is mostly with the Honda's, less with the Nissans and Toyotas. Now that the Subaru's are becoming popular, I can see the thefts increasing.
I might be just over reacting to the situation. I just thought that it was very strange. I am just going to keep a more watchful eye of my car.
I just want let everyone know to keep an eye on their cars.

I keep an eye out on the street parking infront of PTC, namely because my car is there and usually my co-workers R1 is parked in front of the shop. So if you guys shop at Comp park in front of PTC and I can keep an eye out for your cars. Oh and that saves you from dings from the customers carting out there large computer/monitor boxes.

Cool, thanks! It could be nothing, but from previous events with my friends cars being stolen, a wrx found burned to a crisp. I am just more cautious about things.
