E63 on wood blocks

I was driving home and I came across this E63 sitting on little 2x4 blocks of wood with the wheels taken off, or stolen I should say. I would have been beyond furious if I saw my car like this. I hope the owner of this E63 gets justice for whats happened.

What part of town is that? Looks like East LA or East Hollywood with those bars on the windows and doors and dying front lawns.....

I know that area really well. Looks like it's over more on Berendo or New Hampshire, closer to Vermont and even below Franklin.

That area changes within a block. Plus it seems to have become a lot more dense lately.

F me that sucks... I dont ever park my car outside no matter how nice my neighborhood might be.

Im not sure how good any street can be if the homes need bars though

Anyone here?

Yup, Its pretty much around that area, above Franklin. I agree about the area changing within a block.

You can never be too careful. I never park my car outside either specifically becuase of reasons like this.

what a nightmare!
There was a similar pic on here a while back of the same thing on a white E63 if my memory is right.
wonder if he had wheel locks? Not that it always helps

Yeah that is a sketchy neighborhood, ok during the day but at night not so much.

Nevertheless, I doubt the owner of that car lives on that block

Huh... they stole the wheels not the car. No need for a key to steal our wheels.

yea what does he mean "stole the car"? Mercy.

Anyway that sucks but as someone else said at least it wasn't left resting on the rotors. I wonder if it had the stock 18s on or was wearing something a little flashier which caught the criminal's eye.

I always have a locking nut as one of my five but I'm guessing most criminals carry the right tools. Anyone have any better ideas for the rare occasions we have to park on sketchy streets?

man... that is unfortunate. I would be furious. Why would someone park a car like that on the street? he should have at least parked it in the drive way.

Hopefully he'll have some coverage with insurance depending on his deductible. Then, he can get in on that group buy for new rims! :-)

The glass is half full! ;-)

$5 says that if the (let's say) guy who owns that car doesn't live there (would be an oddity if that car parks on that street), he's hitting some a$$ that does.

Seriously though, that suuuuucks. Human filth is what's responsible for that.
