Di type ng mga carnappers ang Hyundai GC?

^^^

tingin ko ang basehan nila hindi sa type o hindi nila type ang sasakyan

the thinking is how fast they can liquidate the car

after all, that's the end-goal diba?

cash

either may order sa kanila specific model, then they steal one

may ready buyer na

or they steal a popular model, then hanap buyer

madalas all-stock ninanakaw nila

pag customized mahirap ibenta

nakakatakot naman yang balita na yan, kala ko safe na yung may auto at iwas sa holdap using public transport, carnap naman pala problema pag may sasakyan ... tsk tsk

What's considered a carnapper's favorite now? Vios?

**tidus1203** · July 31st, 2010 07:31 PM

Vios and Innova. Easy to sell, high resale value! Pag election season mahilig din sila sa mga SUV's. Tapos mahilig din sa AUV's pero not to sell, yang ang escape car nila madalas. Kung baga gamit, tapos tapon!

MANILA, Philippines - Police on Saturday recovered the Toyota Camry used by the leader of the Padilla Gang, a carjacking group that forcibly took the cars of former Ambassador Roberto Romulo and the father of actor Derek Ramsay.

Found inside the Toyota Camry were the driver's license of suspected carjack ring leader Ivan Padilla and his bank passbook. A delivery note for former Ambassador Romulo's car was also recovered the vehicle.

Also seized from the vehicle were ammunition for 9mm pistol and M16 rifle, a magazine vest, a red plate (SHT 281) and several types of car keys.

Villaruel said that according to the hospital's security, the driver of the Toyota Camry parked it and immediately transferred to a waiting car with another person.

Police believe that one of the men who abandoned the Toyota Camry at the hospital's parking area was Padilla.

Padilla's group encountered operatives of the National Capital Region Police Office's (NCRPO) near the Filinvest 2 subdivision in Quezon City on Thursday night.

Two of Padilla's cohorts, Dale Alemagno and Glen del Castillo, were arrested after the encounter. Padilla, meanwhile, was able to escape using another vehicle.

NCRPO chief Roberto Rosales has announced that the Alemagno and Castillo were on board Romulo's Toyota Camry during the encounter.

The vehicle has been turned to the Philippine National Police's Highway Patrol Group for processing.
