Sucks for this to be my first post, but I just got this car from my buddy a couple of weeks ago since my old corolla is a piece. It happened last night, and I had to work this morning so I didn't have a chance to look it over all that well, they tried to steal it and broke the ignition, took my 5zigen FN01R-C 17" rims and kumho tires, as well as my kouki rear lights. I am a noob so i don't know all the details of the lights, my buddy knows but he's in Korea right now and so I have to wait until he calls me or gets online so I can get more info on it. They bent the shit out of my e-brake too. At least they left my lug nuts.

Wow, that sucks, why didn't you have an alarm
, you live in riverside, which isn't a good area to not have an alarm

Like I said, I just got the car, barely had enough money for it and registration fees and to put it on my insurance, liability no less. I was planning on taking it on Monday, since I got paid today, and getting an alarm. The nuts were scattered on the lawn. I did have lock nuts, but I got home from work at about 1am and forgot the lug key in the car.

yeah I haven't owned the thing 2 weeks yet and it happened. I can't say if it had any special marks, the wheels had some curb damage but nothing special I can think of. And yup right in the goddam driveway.

That's like 3rd or 4th one in Riverside/IE area in couple months. Sucks to hear. Thieves should get their hands cut off!

Did you file a police report? Should have also had the police print the lugs, car, jack, etc.
