Amazing that three different alarms went off, two different security organizations responded, and still didn't spot anything...

Definitely sounds like somewhat of an inside job or at least someone that works there or knows someone that works there (uninvolved). Wouldn't all of these vehicles have BMW assist? Is there a quick and easy way to [permanently] disable it? I suppose taking the vehicles underground/in a no coverage area might do the trick. My guess is they get caught pretty soon. If they took 8 vehicles -- they either had too many people involved or some guy was actually dumb enough to keep going back over an extended period of time..
