I awoke this morning to hear on the news that my G37 Coupe is third on a new list of cars most likely to be stolen. I guess we all must continue to be careful where we park:

Yep. And the OEM wheels are #1 or #2 of stolen wheels

If that's true, I'll expect insurance rates to rise.

it depends on what state you are registered in. it won't cause a rise nationally.

not where i live.. hopefully insurance companies take location into account so i dont get raped with insurance

if someone copies your FOB signal the alarm won't go off...because it will be a recognized signal

they do take location into account but in VA I would think yours would go up

Rolling codes...capturing and copying them doesn't work because once you have the most recent code used, it is rendered useless.

read my post in the other thread, it is possible, just not prevalent

If the G37 makes a national list of the top stolen cars, then I think it is safe to say that it's not just a local issue. Certain cars may be more popular targets of thieves in some areas, but for the most part a popular car to steal is popular everywhere. And any time a car is a popular car to be stolen or a popular car for kids who like to street race (and get involved in the inevitable crashes), then it's a safe bet that the car will go into a higher risk category, which means higher insurance rates for most owners in most locations.
