Curious why older models top the list over newer, flashier vehicles? One official from the National Insurance Crime Bureau explains, "Older cars are often stolen because the parts for those models start to become harder and harder to come by, making the pieces more profitable for thieves. This is why we often see a clustering effect with the same make and style of vehicles being stolen year after year.” Furthermore, one should note that vehicle thieves also follow market trends and target the most popular vehicles because they provide the best market for stolen vehicle parts and illegal export to other countries.

You might be wondering what effect car-theft rates have on the price you pay for auto insurance. Because insurance companies set their auto insurance rates according to the industry's loss history, vehicles that have a high-theft risk will more than likely be charged a higher auto insurance rate. However, many insurance companies offer discounts for automatic anti-theft devices, which can help keep your auto insurance rate down. ChoiceAutoInsurance.com features online auto insurance quotes from many such companies.
