Exclamation 8th (/6th) Gen Si's Still Getting Stolen?

I know a TON of the '99/'00 Si's would get stolen, gutted & dumped.

Are people stealing the new Si's a lot or not really?

not really, the chip in the key makes them alot less valuable when stolen, as opposed to the the b16 si's 99/00...the motor is no good w/o the key

Not too long ago one of my friend's SI motor and turbo got stolen. What we don't understand is how this person was able to get a lift and take the motor out, as well as the turbo. Not just that, WTF happened to the alarm at least 1 person should've heard it.

If they can't steal your car, they can ALWAYS take your mods. WATCH OUT! - Fayt's word of advice!
