If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.
This is basically the same question as another one you posted thus I will give you the same answer. It is hard to say. It appears from your description that the person took the car from the premises without permission which is the same as stealing it regardless of any intent to return the vehicle at some point. The bigger question is what priors does this person have? It will make a substantial difference if this is the first arrest, or if there is a history of similar offenses.
