easy to prevent theft really, just do what most rx owners do and leave it sitting in parts and in a constant state of disasembly in your locked garage or even better just leave it at the repair shop like the ones that dont do the work themselves. i think anyone who has ever seen my car has only seen it apart in bits. maybe yours runs good but that would be even more rare, and to a thief only a ticking time bomb of an chance. i wouldnt risk stealing an rx only to have it break down 3 minutes later and have to ditch it anyways. but then again im cynical.

hahaha i think thats funnny too cuz mines in pieces right now ( i thought i was alone ) but will be on the road by march again with all its new goodies. but if u really think about it, if u put a cut/off fuel switch in the car HIDDEN, the theif cant really get far u kno? i mean just to start the bastard takes alot of fuel, especially if ur running rich, i mean if my car was broken into they can take the radio or the loose change in my ash tray but as long as i still have my car and am able to rebuild it then i'll be fine. idk if u guys feel the same

I would cry (sentimental attachment).
Then I would collect the insurance cheque and buy another.

just

use the lojack logo and put it on something that looks legit... im sure most crooks know what lojack is and if you mimic'd it you stand more of a chance. Photoshop + Illustrator skills required.

Then go with the cheaper anti theft solutions.. so you still stand a chance of recovery.
