Apparently the rule of thumb is: if your vehicle has ever appeared in a music video, or is ever outfitted with a fart can muffler, your odds of getting stolen are higher.

4 of the top 10 are Cadillac Escalades... Wow.

I only know one person with a Hummer H2 .... and... it was stolen! He got it back though.

Here in the states they want the Hondas and Toyotas.

Me too. I'm trying to sell my 95 Civic EX Coupe with the stock D16Z6, but I'm not going to park it out on the street with a "For Sale" sign on it, because I want money for it.

I wish them luck with a diesel yaris! Although, it could pull an ATM out of the wall......
