Glad to know I'm immune to brain dead car jackers.

See this is what I loved about owning an RX7 with a twin plate and a short shifter.
If the idiots managed to get through the 50 steps to get it started, they would probably stall & restart the car enough times for it to be flooded and temporarily die.
Never once was I worried about that car getting stolen.

Dog box and quick release steering wheel always help too.

Don't know about you guys, but if I had a gun pointed at me, I don't think the first thing to come to my head would be 'It's a manual, bro'.

Then again, in my case, I could tell them it's NOT a manual, and hopefully they will change their mind. Who would want to steal an auto rex, seriously?

Someone with slightly fewer braincells than the person who would pay money for one?
