Honda Civics and Toyota Camrys are usually right up there at the top.

[Five*Star*]

hahah civics arnt on the list kinda odd

That's because Honda civics are old news... nobody wants those things anymore. Everyone wants turbo RWD and AWD cars now. hehehe

[Sibious]

hahah civics arnt on the list kinda odd

thats what i was thinking

[1000cckiller]

lots of parts are stolen from evos that is the low down, its not that the car itself is stolen,I have read the full report on it.

[Miknow]

Where is the link to the report?

[BLk92DA]

we're only in the middle of 2006.....summertime is here....crime/theft rate goes up

[regentselite]

the sebrings are popular for thefts for 2 reasons.

1. they swap out parts for 6 different other cars. ( other sebrings, stratus, cirrus, breeze, some neons, PT cruiser)

2. They have hardly any theft protection on them, and the ignition is one of the easiest to pop.

If there aren't any tegs on the list something's fucked up.

[Sushi]

tegs are above the list.

[2turbo4u]

tegs are above the list.

I agree!

[KevinT707]

I've never seen CRXs' in the list at all so I suppose I'm pretty safe. I guess no one wants a 16 year old boxy car that you can't pick up chicks with.

it's a lonely man's car! hahaha

[RUFFIAN]

I think Hondas are on a seperate list all together.

[aaronfelipe]

Glad to see Honda is not there,

Damn Fucked up my Engine, Tranny, Transfer Case etc.!!! :confused:

Damn Mitsubishi Dealer won't cover it!!!

Damn this shit is expensive!

How am i gonna recover from this?

Oh....I know how

The reason the Integra is not on there is because it is just 2003-2005 cars (it would appear as RSX if it was on the list). Aparently most of the Civics that are stolen are the older ones as there are more of them with aftermarket parts to steal. Unfortunately, the Hondas are sure to make their way up on the list again - just wait until more parts for the K-series come out and the swaps become easier. The cars on the list are just the latest models, it does not include all of the older models which are the ones that are most commonly stolen.

All the tegs have been jacked already, there isnt any left

I had a teg jacked from me 2 years ago and so did my 3 other buddies with tegs. That's one of the reasons I said bye bye to the import stuff, too many dumb kids cant buy their own shit and they jack yours.

I hope you didn't go out and buy a Ford Taurus?

[jfman]

I had a ford lighting up until a month ago. I'm in between cars right now.


I love the honda's but sadly I will probably never own one again.

Tired of..

Paying more in insurance on a teggy than a Lighting
Vehicular profiling by the damn popo
Watching out for people wanting to jack my shit

No to mention they are money pits as mods add up fast, well thats the same for all cars but I prefer having cars that are apreciable when stock.

[Azn-Boost]

thats right its about the 2003-2005 cars...... but hondas are still being jacked

I saw that article in the paper a few weeks ago or so. I was quite upset to see the evo being second on the list. The thing that confuses me is inside the key of an evolution has a microchip in it that doesnt allow the car to be driven more than a mile or so before shutting down if a new key was made. That meants that: A: people are stealing the owners keys, or B: as stated before the owners are "claiming" they were stolen because they dont know how to tune their cars and blow them up. As an Evo owner I am very particular about my keys though. I can see things being stolen out of them easily considering they dont come from the factory with an alarm system (stupid engineers from mitsubishi).

[careyk]

Yeah i remember reading an article on the stolen cars list! The integra was on the top of the list! Everyone wants the B series shit!

[Pavlo]

The CCC reports the ten most stolen vehicles for 2005 are as follows:


2001 BMW M Roadster
1998 Acura Integra
2004 Mercury Marauder
1999 Acura Integra
1995 Acura Integra
2002 Audi S4
1996 Acura Integra
1997 Acura Integra
2001 Acura Integra
2000 Jaguar XJR

So they still are not on the list, at least for the 2005. For 2004 it was actually a 95 honda civic.
Evo s are on top for the most stolen NEW cars between 1 and 3 years old, so there aren't many of them stolen really, way less than hondas.

[2turbo4u]

I'm suprised Chrysler 300C,Magnum,Chargers aren't on the list. They are so popular and you can swap engines and what not, and don't forget the bling bling wheels peeps put on them w/the ice grills yo!

[OneSlow5pt0]

true,i thought their would be more dodges

[SoLJames95]

But still.... There is like 200 type of vehicles of cars out there. Honda could be number 11. Damn if only people knew how to lock there doors or use there alarm system.

[GHETTO_ELMO]
