For the third year in a row, the 1999 and 2000 Honda Civic SiR 2-door have topped the list of the most frequently stolen vehicles in Canada. Both models are also in the top five list of the highest theft claims cost per vehicle.

The highest theft claims cost vehicle – and also third on the list of the top ten most stolen vehicles – is the 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX/WRX STi 4-door all-wheel-drive.

While many stolen vehicles are later recovered, the trend has been skewing to exportation. Some organized crime rings are exporting luxury vehicles overseas or using them for parts. IBC notes that an increase in later-model 4-wheel drive vehicles may mean that these vehicles are being exported to countries with rough terrain, including parts of the Middle East and Africa.

The top ten stolen vehicles in Canada in 2007 were:

1. 1999 Honda Civic SiR 2-door
2. 2000 Honda Civic SiR 2-door
3. 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX/WRX STi 4-door AWD
4. 1999 Acura Integra 2-door
5. 1994 Dodge/Plymouth Grand Caravan/Voyager
6. 1994 Dodge/Plymouth Grand Caravan/Voyager AWD
7. 1994 Dodge/Plymouth Caravan/Voyager
8. 1998 Acura Integra 2-door
9. 2000 Audi TT Quattro 2-door Coupe
10. 1994 Dodge/Plymouth Shadow/Sundance 2-door Hatchback

None of the top ten vehicles most stolen come equipped with electronic immobilizers.

As of September 1, 2007, a new federal regulation was implemented, requiring that Canadian manufacturers equip all new cars, vans, light trucks and SUVs with electronic immobilizers.
