Default My Drag Turbo Si almost got stolen!

I parked my car out front of the Mt. Vernon Fred Meyer with my girl in it, so I left it running for her. And two guys drove past and then tried opening the driver side door. And then tried asking what time it was so she would roll down the window or someting. They were gone when I came out 5 min. later.
******* thieves

criminals!!!!! I know WAY too many people who have had their rides ripped off, myself included! Anyone have any creative ideas for making one's car a bit less easy to take off with? I installed an alarm, use a club that attaches to the clutch so that it can not be engaged and plan on installing an auxiliary ignition kill switch. Any other ideas, short of going James Bond with it and making everything bullet proof?

or you could just not stress over it. yeah if youve got a car that youve invested 1000s of dollars on wheels and stereo or mods you are gonna protect it, but if people want to take it bad enough then they are gonna try to take it or mess your car up in the process. the best thing to do is be aware but make sure you have good insurance so when your stuff gets stolen you can always get it back and at least break even.

an alarm w/ ignition kill combine w/ hood lock mechanism would help somewhat...
