Attempted Theft Last Night

Supremely frustrated writing this. But the 6th-gen Camaro thefts hit me last night in southeastern PA. Woke up to a call from my leasing office that my driver's window was busted out. Investigated, found the window busted, but thankfully the car wasn't stolen.

Unsure whether to keep the car or sell it after repairing the window. I wish incivility like this didn't exist, but apparently we can't have nice things :(

Sorry to hear this happened to you.

Did you have any theft prevention devices installed (mechanical or electrical)? If you didn't, it is surprising they didn't get away with your car... If you did, would you mind sharing which you had (without too much detail so as not to give too much away).

Uncomfortable sharing much more info. Just look after your vehicles, folks.

I'm in SEPA as well. Perhaps they were just breaking into it to look for something to steal ?

That is getting a little too close to home also be4ing in SE PA. I have been researching options but haven't settled on anything yet.

Damn I was hoping not to see the thefts in the North East. I am in Long Island NY, garage kept with several layers of anti-theft but I feel I should do more.
