Would like to know what deterrents were in place. I'm paranoid my security layers aren't enough, and all I drive is a Civic!

chicago theft has been up again. 9 cars were stolen in one night a few weeks ago. car was in the driveway blocked in by another car. car was gone in a span of 2-3 hours. the car was on e with the gas light on. father was sleeping in the living room and he didnt hear anything. sensitive car alarm failed.

never took pictures with the car.

flame on for not having it in the garage. we have more than 5 cars. this post was just a heads up to all the R owners in the chicagoland area. it was fun driving it for less than 9k miles. as for the badge number, the original owner lost the badge.

as for the guy who said it got stolen because i live in the suburbs, slap said the right hand to the face.

just wanted to thank all the helpful people that have been in this forum. its been a nice 7 years

The thieves probably used a JerrDan Element. There was a little piece on it on Discovery Channel I think. A car was boxed in at both ends while parked on the street and the repo guy was able to take it out without touching the other two cars. He had the car removed and secured in about 20 seconds.
