Sarah Harvey, who works at a gym in Mission Valley, believes the same suspect drove that car to her workplace a few months ago.
She witnessed a man get out of the car and break into another car before quickly driving away.
"I was confused as to why a guy in a nice car was stealing from other peoples cars,"said Harvey.
A San Diego Police detective said it was too early to tell if the BMW is the same one being used in a series of car burglaries at gyms all round the city.
