i have no idea but im guessing that the rsx will prob get stolen more due to k swaps becoming more common (since the rsx-s has a better k than the ep) but i have no clue on a ratio between the two

I would think the rsx-s is more highly sought after. Better motor, tranny, etc. and more people own RSXs vs EP3s so thieves would have a bigger crowd to target selling =[

Let's not get nasty. Many people will de-badge their cars to hide the performance characteristics. It's not something I would do, but to each his own.

I feel like I live in a country where I shouldn't have to deface my car just to make it a bit safer... Lame.

I do feel for my Honda though. I don't like driving and parking my car in Portland at night (concerts). I have a fear I will come back to an empty parking spot and the only sign that my car was there is a dry square of pavement where the rain didn't touch.

In my parts I hear of older hondas being stolen more than new ones though.

Older hondas ('88-00 civics, crx's, '90-01 integras) get stolen much more often than EPs, FGs, and DC5s.

Either way, debadging a type S would be a good idea.

Good luck hiding the extra inch and a half of front rotor.

I agree with the above. RSX S would be more likely to be stolen because of the better motor
