Someone Tried to Jack My Car!
im in south san jose. nobody tried to steal my car yet but i think some kids are scoping my wheels or somethin.. ive came outside twice at about 2am to find a wrx with 3 kids in it parked right by my house and they take off when i come outside. they werent hotboxing their car or nothin either. my roommates window is about 4 feet from my car but he is oblivious to all noises comming from out front.
next time you should walk out with a camera or something to capture their plate...

I see that car roll by my house once in awhile...and they're not visiting anyone on my street.

I'm pretty inclined to believe that.
So even with parking behind a gate, becareful... and don't leave your gate remote in the car (we had strict rules about that). Not only does it make it easier for your car to be targetted and/or stolen, it makes you partially responsible for any other car that gets stolen (if they take and use your remote).
In the 3 years i lived in LA with gated garages, no incidents. But really, it's not hard to see how someone can get in who shouldn't, so becareful.
watch out near SJSU too. I live in an apartment on the south side of SJSU, my wrx got broken into mid december last year, in the carport, off the street. Theres been a bunch of incidents near my apartment as well.. cars broken into/stolen/stolen and stripped and abandoned.. I don't drive the wrx down there anymore.. need to move out of that area.
