[quote]After three years, Amanda Pogany forgot about her stolen 1996 Honda Accord, assuming it was in car heaven. But recently the cops found it at a Queens chop shop, traced it back to her and called up the Brooklyn teacher. The Daily News reveals it was "returned to her drag-race ready, with a brand-new V-8 engine, tinted windows, oversized tires with special hubcaps - and custom valve stem caps shaped like bullet casings."
Pogany said, "When I first saw under the hood I thought it looked like, you know in the movie 'Grease?' Like the 'Grease Lightning' car." Further, the car's interim owner—apparently he bought from the thieves—also put "in a manual transmission and leather interior and [hung] a Dominican flag and a giant wooden cross from the rearview mirror." Pogany said, "I'm Jewish. and I don't even know how to drive a stick shift!"
Her friends are offering her stick shift lessons but the car is in her parents' NJ driveway, where it's the belle of the block (people have expressed interested in buying it). In other news, the NYPD is reportedly trying to crack down on auto thefts—they are down 14% over 2008 and 2009 but are up 27% this year.[/quote]
What a lucky lady.
i wish people did that for me
Why the fuck would you put a V8 engine and oversized tires in a 1996 Honda accord
The modifications are probably worth several times the worth of the car itself

So fucking what? Using that logic I should never upgrade my computer because it is likely that they cost more than the computer is worth today.
Of course a computer is not a car but the same basic idea applies,[B] it's[I] their[/I] car, not yours.[/B]
no doubt it's getting sold, especially now that it's on the news
let the bidding begin
Such a story and NO PICS?
This story is honestly nothing without before/after shots of the car.

:geno:
How does her being jewish have any correlation to her not knowing how to drive stickshift?
So being Jewish is directly related to not knowing how to Stick Shift?
Edit:
Ninja, why you saying the same as me?

Yep. She definitely wasn't joking. Pfffft, humor? Yeah right.
Shes saying she's Jewish in relation to the Cross, not stick-shift.
She should learn to drive stick, and start dragracing then :smug:

That was the image on the news article.
I would get rid of that car, because whoever pimped it probably put a lot of money into it, and won't like somebody taking it for himself.
I would sell it to the person who stole it.
:smug:

I know, I know. America suffers from a widespread inability to drive a proper box.
I find it awesome :D
Seriously.. think of waking up to another boring day, and then the police calls and tell you that they got your old car back? what a great day it must have been
It's really not that hard to drive manual, what a waste.

It's like people who pimp out Cavaliers. Just because you put a body kit on it doesn't change the fact that it's a piece of shit.

From the description in the OP, it sounds like some dumb ghetto hoodlum owned it beforehand, so yeah.
[QUOTE=Sparkwire;21567087]How does her being jewish have any correlation to her not knowing how to drive stickshift?[/QUOTE]
Because there was a cross and dominican flag in the car.
