Default Preventing break ins on old Honda's

I wanna buy an old Honda (it's all I can afford right now), prolly late 80's to early 90's, but I'm worried about break ins. I hear Honda's specifically from those years are constantly broken into, plus my boss has a Accord from that era and his car has been stolen [and returned] 4 times.

How do I secure or make it harder for my future old Honda to get broken into?

I was thinking something more on the lines of changing the oem/original/stock locking system or adding something to the locking system to make it harder to break or changing or improving the ignition key system so jackers and joyriders can't start the car without the real key. Are any of these things possible?

nothing you can do to prevent from break ins as long as you have glass windows.. so if you disable power locks, be ready to replace windows. one easy way is... kill switches and be creative with it. that sticky kind of goes over a lot of options

As far as I know there is nothing like this on the market.
