I got Lo Jack when I bought my car. It was a very painless install and only took the guy about a half hour in my driveway. It might have made my insurance go down a little bit.

Why are there no plates? When i got my 06 used with no plates, after a while, i smelt a flooded car... the seat sliders were rusting and then problems started. Within the first month, no hard driving, the turbo blew the fan to shreads.... then the drive belt broke, then the power steering.... i finally gave up and sold it for a new one!

A first time STI owner with a mechanical engineering degree would want to verify the coefficient of friction by compromising the tire to road interface during nonlinear maneuvers while employing the greatest possible pressure differential between atmosphere and the intercooler cavity.
