    <p>The Porsche 911 GT3 is the one closest cars you can get to a road-going racer.</p>
    </div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p>When a car manufacturer wants to snoop at a rival's technology, they try to be discreet. Unfortunately for Honda, Porsche pieced the clues together.</p>
    <p>It's not unusual for a maker developing a new vehicle to see what's under the rival's hood. As <em><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.autonews.com/article/20160725/OEM03/307259976/how-hondas-purchase-got-found-out-by-porsche' title="">Automotive News</a></em> reported, that's what Honda did during the development of the Acura NSX.</p>
    <p>They wanted a peek at the "highly regarded" Porsche 911 GT3, in particular its steering.</p>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/8/8/l/1/e/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1d5t1d.png/1469669151263.jpg" title="" alt="1469669151263.jpg"><div><span>SUPPLIED</span></div>
    <div>
    <p>The Honda Acura NSX supercar at the Los Angeles Auto Show.</p>
    </div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p>So a member of the NSX's development team strolled up to a Porsche dealer - in the usual "look like an average customer" style - and bought a 911. (Normally, the dealership is oblivious to the fact their rival is buying a car. And that's how the rival, in this case Honda, wants it.)</p>
    <p>Much to the glee of Porsche, that's not how things worked out, Honda's vehicle dynamics project leader Nick Robinson told <em>Automotive News</em>.</p>
    <p>When the <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/news/a7107/fire-risk-sidelines-every-porsche-911-gt3-built-to-date/'>GT3 was recalled to fix a connecting rod issue in the engine</a>, Porsche took a look at the car's black-box data. The penny dropped. The team Porsche knew who the car was bought for and couldn't help but have a little fun at Honda's expense. </p>
    <p>"Good luck Honda, from Porsche. See you on the other side," read the note left under the 911's engine cover.</p>
    <p>Robinson told <em>Automotive News</em> Honda also bought a McLaren 12C during the development of the US$157,800 NSX hybrid. (Sidenote: Yes, that's a pricey NZ$221,953 for the NSX.)</p>
    <p>While McLaren never cottoned on to Honda in that case, the dealership did raise eyebrows when the car was returned several times for remedial work, Robinson said.</p>
    <p>"They wanted to know, where did you go 205mph (329kmh)? What track?"</p>

I don't see a problem.<br><br>The NSX is another example of how great hybrid cars can be.<br><br>Having said that I'd still take a GT3...

    <p>probably not the most accurate measure, but if close, it would have added to the drag</p>

    <div>
    <p>The thief only got about 15m before the women pinned him down until police arrived.</p>
    </div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p>A would-be thief appears to have failed to notice that one of the group of bikini-clad women he was targeting was also seriously ripped.</p>
    <p>That oversight turned out to be a big mistake.</p>
    <p>Moments after his smooth sleight-of-hand, he was being pinned to the ground by off-duty Swedish police officer Mikaela Kellner - who does powerlifting and Crossfit when not upholding the law, and has appeared on TV show Swedish Ninja Warrior.</p>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/d/6/m/r/o/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1d6k4u.png/1469752386637.png" title="" alt="1469752386637.png"><div><span>INSTAGRAM/MIKAELA KELLNER</span></div>
    <div>
    <p>Fair to say the thief probably realised he had picked the wrong targets for his crime.</p>
    </div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p>Kellner was sunbathing with friends in a Stockholm park when the man approached under the guise of selling magazines for the homeless.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <div><strong> </strong></div>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/d/6/m/r/d/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1d6k4u.png/1469752386637.png" title="" alt="1469752386637.png"><div><span>INSTAGRAM/MIKAELA KELLNER</span></div>

    <p>Mikaele Kellner has appeared on Swedish Ninja Warrior.</p>
    </div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p> </p>
    <p>He was persistent, and at one point put his magazines down on top of a mobile phone belonging to one of the sunbathers.</p>
    <p>As the man walked away, the woman realised he taken taken her phone with him.</p>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/d/6/m/q/r/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1d6k4u.png/1469752386637.png" title="" alt="1469752386637.png"><div><span>INSTAGRAM/MIKAELA KELLNER</span></div>
    <div>
    <p>Kellner said she acted on instinct in chasing the thief.</p>
    </div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p>Kellner was after the thief like a shot, getting to him when he was about 15 metres away and pinning him to the ground with the help of one of her friends - also an off-duty police officer.</p>
    <div>
    <div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    </div>
    <p>"He realised quite quickly that it wasn't worth struggling," Kellner told The Local Sweden.</p>
    <p>"I just acted on instinct," she said.</p>
    <div>
    <div> </div>
    </div>
    <p>Sitting on the ground, waiting for the apprehended pickpocket to be taken away by some on-duty colleagues, she realised the sight might be quite funny. But she was undaunted.</p>
    <p>"I would have stepped in no matter what my outfit. Had I been naked I would also have intervened. Nothing will stop me."</p>
    <p>Kellner posted a picture of the take down on her Instagram account, taking the opportunity to remind people about the tactics used by pickpockets.</p>
    <p>The theft was "like magic", she said.</p>
