Cars that say 'Steal Me' to car thieves

Question: Is your car still in the garage or has a thief taken it? Is it still in that parking space at the company parking lot or has a thief taken it? Is it still present in that space you left it in the mall parking lot? Or has a thief taken it?



Auto theft is a major problem here in the U.S. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has identified the most stolen cars. Is your car on the list?

Some of the cars include:

  • The Cadillac Escalade (pictured) is not only numero uno among stolen vehicles, but it's also number 2, 3, and 5. If you buy one,  make sure you're either rich (to replace it), have good insurance, and  have another vehicle ready.
  • Ford F-Series
  • Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. We wonder why....
  • Dodge Magnum. Specifically, the HEMI trim.
  • Buick Rainier (discontinued). You're kidding. Why would thieves be interested in this SUV?
  • Toyota Prius.

A full listing and details can be found below. Our take? Regardless if you're car made the list or not, always use commons sense: lock your car, windows, never leave the engine running, etc.
