Should I break up with her or keep her?
Me and my baby 97 civic hatchback have been through a lot these 5 years. I usually keep her garaged in my parents house so no one touches her. But I found my own pad now without a garage and now everyone is fair game. I'm pretty sure someone might attempt to steal her because I hear so many stories of stolen cars. She is an eye catcher that's for sure and I invested so much money in her.
I have a kill switch alarm, detachable steering wheel, a wheel lock, an auto lock, and even disabled the door locks so only way in is through a remote.
I cannot post pictures of her because of potential thieves around my area who been eying my car for a while now and will immediately recognize this car.
Again this car has always been in the garage and now she will be unleashed into the wild! to be untamed and ravished by the outside forces of nature and its predecessors of man eating lions hungry for fresh RED MEAT!
Sell her? or should I keep her and invest in more security features like a lo jack? Any thoughts?
Update: I've decided to keep her and get a lo jack and looking into upgrading my insurance. Thanks for the help everyone. I hope I don't ever have to make a thread where I state that my car is now stolen.. EVER! This thread is dead!

yeah I know... garage is always the best but for now I'm stuck without one.. I found a pad next to the college I'm going to so I cant leave town.. and for everyone out there that don't understand why I might want to post up such a question, try living in Socal especially the 562 areas..

Re: Should I break up with her or keep her?
your still an idiot.. the whole point is not getting my car stolen.. if I get a camry its still going to get stolen.. regardless if I'm a ***** or not.. you must not live in socal so you don't have a clue or think twice about getting your car stolen.. besides I got my stock 94 integra ls stolen years ago.. it was parked right in front of my sisters pad 1 night after sleeping over. I'm not stupid to let it happen again..
