there isn't enough STI's to be the most stolen vehicle...something more common and affordable would be the highest stolen vehicle. Its like saying macs never get viruses or break down in compairison to PC's....thats because majority of ppl have PCs and are always on them, so majority of problems are visible there. Just an example

bad comparison.. because i've owned the same mac for almost 5 years and NOT ONCE have I had a problem... then i get a pc at work and what do you know.. viruses.. lol... my parents pc which they got 2 years ago... JUNK... breaks down.. has viruses.... so im comparing 1 mac... to 2 pcs... and 1 mac wins.. and 2 pcs lose.. you tell me the odds on that... lol

plus that comparison was just as far off from the truth as the picture of that 95 civic up top... lol

What I found interesting after looking at the IBC index, the 2001-2002 Civic has a significantly lower theft rate than the 2003 Civic. The 2004-2005 civic theft rate shoots up and than drops again for the 2006 Civic.
