Picked up the car from the tow yard right when it opened this morning. Flabberghastingly enough, it appears to be in perfect condition. The only thing I've found to be missing at this point is my gym bag (with stinky gym clothes), although the iPhone sport arm band that was in the bag is still in the car, so clearly the rummaged around in the bag ... and still decided to keep it. Based on mileage records, it appears that in addition to driving the car from my place to Hayward, they only put about 50 miles on it. Several things were moved around -- the connection cords for the GPS and audio were moved from their usual location to a different location, but they were all still present. (I don't store the GPS in the car for good reason.) Oh, and the seat was adjusted by someone with longer legs than me. (Not difficult.)

I have to complete the paperwork for the insurance company to get my reimbursements. I have an appointment with Honda tomorrow to get it thoroughly inspected -- just because. And having weighed various increased security measures, I'm going to get a "club". Based on the complete lack of damage to the doors, windows, and ignition, it does seem likely that the thieves were the same guys as my burglary back in June and that the Honda folks were completely off the mark when they said changing the eletronic part of the lock would prevent them from being able to use their stolen key-set.

For those confused by some of my cryptic comments about moving (which have been scattered randomly between here and facebook), I'll be posting a locked explanation of my Path Forward.

I am so glad you got it back, and that it appears truly undamaged.

Hot rats!

Although it is odd to say the least that these jerks seem to be using your car as their spare ride...!

We haven't heard a single gunshot since we moved out here. Just saying.

Hope it's as sound as it seems to be, with no hidden nasties. Whew!

What a relief that the car is undamaged. I hope the thorough inspection by the Honda people give it a clean bill of health.
