Makes sense I guess - less sophisticated central locking/alarms/immobilisers :ph43r:

luckily neither my silvia or my skyline were stolen, alarms are a must these days.
Heres hoping the altezza will never make it to that list :unsure:

Mazda Lantis?
Why are they a target?

girlfriend had a lantis.
piece of crap all sorts was f$%ing out on it. you would probably break down if you stole it. would of done us a favour if it got nicked though lol.

Keeps breaking down so there's a demand on parts for it :D
See United State's top 10 stolen cars, basically nothing appealing in it:

So annoying, my insurance is higher cause "it's one of the most stolen cars". Never seen tezzas on these lists. I deal with heaps of stolen cars thru work and never an altezza.. ah well.
Maybe Lantis' are easy to break into, cheaper ride home than a taxi? People will steal anything, even if it is tied down.

EDIT: Spoke to the chairperson for NZ car security today.. Apparently Altezzas are pretty up there, just not on the AA list. I am waiting to get the list from NZ wide stats to see, will let you know :)
