(Newser) – Police in San Francisco are hunting a thief who used climbing gear to break into a swanky car dealership and steal one of the city's most distinctive cars. The bright yellow Lamborghini Gallardo was the property of celebrity chef Guy Fieri, host of Minute to Win It and Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Police believe the thief will have a hard time selling the vehicle, although since it can top 190mph, they don't think he had any trouble making a quick getaway.

It'll be pretty hard to sell, let alone hide, a police spokesman said.

celeb chef??? Hot dogs and diner food, yes that is food only a chef like Guy could prepare. He is such a loser with that hair that belongs on a tween or teen only. He deserves to have his car stolen, idiot that he is. Probably worth more sold as parts anyway. He should drive a moped around SF. It most likely took the thief only a minute to win it !! Ha Ha.

Never spend $200k on something that isn't permanently attached to the ground.
