Got the car back in shape, and decided to get even. Rigged the driver's seat up to a gas canister. When a body sat it the seat, the gas released and knocked the driver out.
I found him passed out in my car one morning.
Are you serious? That is freaking amazing. I am guessing you pressed charges? Or you just beat the crap out of him?

Sometimes being parked in the garage isn't enough. A well-known NJ gentleman from Rennlist, with whom I had the pleasure of meeting randomly at a gas station one day, had (I think) two Ferraris, a Range Rover, and a very, very modded serious horsepower 951. ONe day he goes out to the garage and only the 951 is gone. Turns up a couple weeks later in a Boston chop shop.

Tracking by satelite is a good idea.
