Do you have this problem?
Hey guys, I was wondering if you guys are experiencing this same type of worry. Like you I drive a riced out ride and occasionally it comes out of the garage to be washed. I know many of you have some killer rides, do you have this problem with people driving by, stopping, staring, making three point turns and coming back to slowly look at your car, heck one guy even asked my dad if he had found a set of lost keys. Point is I'm getting a little worried, it always seems like the same people all the time (or paranoia) Do you guys take any extra precautions??

i donno, i don't have the problem, if i ever think i'm being followed which i swear must have happened a couple of times, i drive around for a while until i lose them, but as far as in my neighbourhood nothing like that's ever happened, i live in a quieter area though, and my car is almost ALWAYS in the garage unless i'm working on it or leaving quick..... that way people don't know what you've got!!

My car is in the garage most of the time unless I'm washing/working on it, so I haven't really had that problem. I have seen a few people look over as they drove by, but nothing that really gets me worried. My neighborhood is pretty quiet and there are a few other cars in the neighborhood that would be more at risk than mine anyways.

I live in a pretty bad hood, but most ppl don't have cars in my hood, they try to steal garbage like old microwaves and old work shelves out of the garage 
Actually it's one neighbour in particular whose legs I'm gonna break if I ever catch him in my back yard... he steals ppls **** and then sells it at his fookin garage sale that he holds half the friggin year. Fookin unemployed bums. My badges were stolen and valve caps, and my dad's plate was taken off his car once, but left there... and I saw some guy try to break into my neighbors van, and his alarm went off LOL the guy scattered... a motion sensor floodlight helps a lot. And they tried to break into our shed too... I can't wait to catch one of them in action 
They'll eat through a straw the rest of their life.

How many Civic owners feel that this post is stupid? I definitely am a newbie to this internet discussion world and I thought I would try to have my opinions or questions listened to, then we get people who believe that the simple ideas that others want to share are stupid and pointless. It's nice too see that when someone tries to get a question answered that it becomes shunned upon. Call me what you like but I thought Torontocivics.com was a place where civic enthusiasts felt free to ask questions in a supportive environment. Just my two cents, doesn't mean much if u don't want it too.
