Brooklyn Teacher Gets Stolen Car Back, All Souped Up



NEW YORK (AP) -- A Brooklyn schoolteacher whose car was stolen three years ago has gotten it back, totally souped up and unrecognizable.
Amanda Pogany's 1996 Honda was returned to her drag-race ready, with a new V-8 engine, manual transmission, leather interior, tinted windows and oversize tires.
Police found the car at an illegal chop shop and were able to trace it to Pogany even though the VIN number had been filed off.
Pogany had given up on ever getting the car back. She hasn't driven the new version of the Honda yet because she doesn't know how to drive a stick shift.

Damn. Hats off to Xzibit for being so committed to pimping cars.

How brutal is that for the person who stole the car and pimped it. They can't call the cops. They're out money. That's awesome.

Quality stuff right here. A thing of beauty. As long as it isn't lime green with ridiculous vinyls on it.

Some of the stuff they do on Pimp my Ride is ridiculous. When the owners comes back and is like "WOW AWESOME!" I actually wonder if they are being serious or secretly thinking "WTF is this?"

That car can't even be street legal...

To put a V8...in a Honda?

I have to see pictures how they managed such a swap.

Seriously, regarding Pimp My Ride, I wonder how many of those cars were jacked as soon as they got back home. "Let me drive my car with 10 grand put into it through the ghetto!"

This is awesome. Steal a car, sink thousands of dollars into it suping it up, and having it go back to the owner. Talk about karmic justice. And she doesn't need to know how to drive it, she can just sell it to a car enthusiast. It's like winning the lottery.
