I accidentally left 370Z unlocked, stuff stolen, is there an auto lock feature?

Just a couple of questions and an observation.

1. Were the items stolen visible from outside the vehicle?

2. Did the thief do any damage to the vehicle?

FWIW, if the articles were visible from outside the vehicle, there is a good chance that having the doors unlocked may very well have allowed the thief into the vehicle without damaging it, which should be at least of some small consolation.

If the articles were not visible -- say under a cargo cover in the rear or a coat or blanket in front -- the same observation about vehicle-damage being prevented just might hold true, but maybe not, too. There just might be something worth stealing under that cargo cover or blanket and that might be all it takes for a thief to either try the door and, if locked, break in, but fast.
