Honda's Civic and Accord have long been hot selling cars. Wednesday, the National Insurance Crime Bureau said the cars are a different kind of hot.
The NICB, for the second year in a row, reported that the 1995 Civic and 1991 Accord were the most stolen vehicles in the nation in 2007, according to the Hot Wheels 2008 report. The 1989 Toyota Camry and the 1997 Ford F-150 pickup truck were the third and fourth most stolen cars for the second year in a row as well.
The NICB study confirms that theft of older model vehicles has remained constant for the past several years. Thieves continue to target the vehicles because they provide the best market for stolen vehicle parts.
