Stolen

This is a great headline and a great story. Don't get my wrong, I am not advocating the theft of expensive automobiles, or theft at all for that matter. But the creativity employed here is brilliant.

"BERLIN (Reuters) - A thief in Germany used a flower pot to steal a 150,000 euro ($221,000) Porsche.

Reversing out of his open garage, the car's owner heard a scraping noise and got out to investigate, police in the western city of Bonn said Tuesday.

As the 56-year-old was bending down to remove a flower pot jammed against a tire, a man pushed him aside, leaped behind the wheel and drove off in his grey Porsche 997 Turbo."
