You're right, but when my '00 Civic Si was stolen and found 3 blocks away on fire, nothing except my personal belongings were removed prior to the flame job.

Just because there won't be enough of them on the road to conceal the stolen parts, doesn't mean it won't be stolen for a joy ride or just to be an asshole.

You're actually attempting to apply reason and rationality to a thief?

I don't want to give off the wrong idea but I can assure you any decent thief would be reasonable and rational...at least relative to their own goals. Otherwise they wouldn't profit and they sure wouldn't get away with it.

I will keep my racist comments to myself about who drives these cars (not the pickups)

Acura Integra (1994)
Dodge Ram Pickup (2004)
Nissan Sentra (1994)
Toyota Pickup (1988)
Toyota Corolla (2007)"

Notice only a couple are less then a decade old, and the newest is also one of the most common cars in America.

Anyone with the skills and tools needed to steal a car with an immobilizer is going to be doing it for more then a joyride.

thats the point im trying to get across, there's alot of people out there that will just steal for fun.

Maybe brz/frs wont be stolen per-say, but it will get a dent or two, key marks, ect, ect

no. The most popular cars that are stolen are luxurious American cars like the HUMMER and i see those everywhere!
If someone were to steal one, it would be easy to spot them out.
