Correct, this is not rate of theft but raw number and Accord and Camry
are the #2 and #1 selling cars.
In terms of theft rate, Chryslers are at the top of the list:
#1 Dodge intrepid
2 Chevy Metro
3 Acura iNtegra
4 Plymouth Neon
5 Dodge Neon
6 Dodge Strauts
7 Mirage
8 Esteem
8 Chrysler LHS
10 Firebird
Camry = #79
Accord = #142
In terms of actual $$$ loss per theft, the Integra is #1. again, Accord
and Camry are not even on the list. This is why your insurance rates are
so low.
The # of vehicles stolen statistic is just a way for Honda dealers to
sell lo-jacks
