Stolen Lamborghini
 
2 Attachment(s)
My friend had his Lamborghini Murcielago Heffner TT stolen in Calgary. It was white with a IMSA bodykit but the rumor is that has been painted flat black and is in Kelowna. If anybody see's it driving on the street please send me a PM so I can give the owner the information, he would also like you to contact the police!

Oh wow how did he get his Lamborghini stolen? Also best of luck in the recovery of the car, I'll keep a lookout as I head to kelowna on the 14th

Hmm Kelowna ain't too big.. We know when a new exotic is around fairly quick.

Can't say I've seen that around.

VrrM604 08-05-2011 08:56 AM

That would be a pretty easy car to spot even if it's painted black
good luck on finding the car

fsy82 08-05-2011 08:58 AM

i would assume it could have been towed away?

Hot Karl 08-05-2011 10:35 AM

so these dudes stole a lambo, resprayed it. but drive it on the daily in kelowna?

so they are apparently 67% elite criminal and 33% retarded?

every 100k car should be equipped with tracking...unless the owner can afford to easily replace 'em.

Kelowna is a pretty random place to take a stolen lambo, more likely it's already been shipped overseas. I hope he had insurance.

How did they steal a car without the key?

ECU is coded to the key, to get the key you need to be the registered owner and need to order it from a dealer with the VIN......

Hope the car comes back in one piece tho. Told my sister about this as she lives in K-Town.

Machi604 08-05-2011 12:56 PM

When was it stolen in Calgary? I haven't heard anything about a stolen lambo recently..
Have you posted on Beyond.ca yet? It's a local (Calgary) car forum that members might be of help too.

not sure about the rumor, but when a car like that gets stolen then I would assume it's going overseas. Hard to believe that someone would be stupid enough to just paint it and keep it in country. Hope I'm wrong, good luck to your friend.

agreed, nobody with the ability to steal a car like that is going to be stupid enough to drive it around town in kelowna. That car is likely loaded on to a shipping container and headed far far away.

Hopefully the engine blows and those fuckers cant get it fixed.

Yes, I will call the police if I see a matte black lambo based on a "rumor" that it was stolen and re-sprayed.

fsy82 08-05-2011 03:20 PM

insurance scam? im just saying:)

1exotic 08-05-2011 03:25 PM

if someone can steal a 500K + lamborghini I'm sure they are smart enough not to get caught... so it may never be seen again.

nonetheless will keep an eye out.

Could've been stolen from a shop, detailer, valet, towed, someone stole his spare key and waited.......

Not if it was a crime of opportunity - that doesn't take much brains.

fsy82 08-05-2011 03:51 PM

For the person who failed me. Its a quite a big possibility of it happening. It wouldn't have been the first time such a scam has been attempted.

asian_XL 08-05-2011 04:52 PM

kspec is back!

nlo 08-05-2011 05:10 PM

damn , how does someone steal a lambo? Will keep a lookout!

donjalapeno 08-05-2011 05:22 PM

RS DETECTIVE CREW ACTIVATE!


....but yeah if the thief isn't a retard like espinosa then the car is already shipped out...im guessing china.


or perhaps stripped to pieces and sold by parts?

Bahhbeehhaaaa 08-05-2011 05:38 PM

If is stolen recently, then the car will not be out on the street within the next 2-4 years. That car got soo much heat, is not hard to spot it.

ImportXxX 08-05-2011 08:58 PM

i was in kelowna last weekend. I actually saw like 3 lambos and a couple of ferrari's...not sure if they have that kit though..and most of them are from alberta too

tiger_handheld 08-05-2011 09:16 PM

have you seen the movie, gone in 60 seconds?

b92 08-05-2011 09:26 PM

gone in 60 seconds:troll:

godwin 08-05-2011 11:32 PM

Tracking can easily be defeated by putting the car in a container.. it is the perfect Faraday cage.
