Very good read if you have a few spare minutes.

Unfortunately my car was one of the 13,000 mentioned...



According to Allstate, a 1999 Honda Civic has a Kelley Blue Book value of $2,750. But if the parts are sold as used OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts, the value pops up to $8,610. On the black market, look for half the value of OEM, but certainly more than Kelley Blue Book.

"Thieves are lazy. Make stealing your car difficult, and thieves will most likely pass it by, Ludwig said."

hence our fule cutoff switches, detachable steering wheels, clutch locks, etc...sorry to hear ur car was one of those 13,000 mentioned....luckly i have an attended parking garage at school and work, one downside to having a 93 civic haha

Soo according to that.. if I go out and buy an OEM civic for like 2k.. I can part it out and make 8k? So at a profit of ~6k per car... I part out like 6 cars.. I just made 36k... thats some bank
