Weird, I thought it was impossible to steal those BMWs unless you have the keys

props to these guys, very professional. Plus they have great taste "The only 550i in the country". Pretty smart move.

if it is run by a computer, then it can easily be harked or cracked

but how, shouldn't they open the door first which will cause the alarm to go off?

They had a 550i and 535i at the show last weekend, so they must have received replacements pretty quickly. hahahahaha!

They should have stolen the new B7 they had on display. The new B7 is hot and I hate the 7 series. Much better looking than the old B7.

Maybe an inside job...
