Guy near me had his brand new BMW M5 stolen out of his driveway.

Weird. Since I'm not a criminal I have no idea how people can steal a new car without a key.

Stealing a car with a key can be tricky. But nearly all modern cars don't have keys. The fob is a computer, computers

every BMW my dealer has seen stolen, was with the key (robbery or left in the car)

One way is to get a signal booster

That works one time.. and you HAVE to be right next to the fob. (impossible to do in real life)

not impossible, that's why it works

If you can get in the car and access the ODBII port, in many cases you can program a new key

Did he leave the Christmas bow on it?

Was it a Kia Stinger with an M5 badge?

You don’t leave a car like that in a driveway…it should be parked in a garage and have the garage shut. Where did this

Probably north Orem.

Inside job from someone at the dealership

This is a good possibility.

If he didn't leave the key in the car... this is the best guess.

A fake ID with the owners information on it is all you'd need to get a key

thieves can use a device that reaches out and steals the fob signal

The work involved.. and the short amount of time you could 'sneak' next to the fob.. not to mention..

Tell that to the people that stole it, I'm not in the business so I can't

My understanding is that it's nearly impossible to do this with BMW fobs that

Used to live in Dallas. It was insane what people would leave parked out front
