Yeah that's one of the reasons that I came upon too. The people that i've seen checking out my car didn't look gangster. But when my cousin described these two guys, it was just all bad vibes.

Thanks for the compliment. I just went out and bought an autolock, which locks the clutch, gas, or brake pedal down. That sucker is pretty hard to get off. I had to saw one off one time because the one I bought, the keys decided that it didn't want to work when i locked it. It was not fun.

I would get a second alarm and call it the day. If they want it, they will get it, some how, some way.

only reason our cars arent that high on the list is because theres no demand for used parts for it. all i used to get into my friends car to retrieve his key was a $9.99 car lockout kit that my buddy bought from a gas station. if you really want me to go into full detail i can. but i dont think too many people on here will be happy if people find out how easy it is. as for hondas do you even know how easy it is to flip stolen parts from them? i have a buddy that used to buy honda wrecked hondas to part them out. most days the parts are sold within a day of them getting pulled off the car. usually through forums, kijiji, or craigslist.

Oh yes he does

I never had that happen to me.. but i agree get a 2way alarm. You'll know exactly where they are tampering with. Killswitch's are good as well.

I cant really post the actual pics on here cuz last time they got deleted by the mods. 99.99% of the pics of my gtr are with half-naked models. LOL

I was up reading this thread last night and I had a dream that my car got stolen. So, when I woke up, I went out and bought this. http://www.clifford.com/Products/Pro...?ProductID=726

Break into and OR smash a window is easy on any car...stealing the SC itself not so much, again stop putting our cars in the same sentence as those fcken hondas!... Hondas can get stolen in under a min. If you have no expierence other then getting your friends keys out of a car stop posting ish

Bottom line is a pro thief can steal any car if they wanted too us as owners just got to take the right security measures so it wont happen.
