Car theft involves planning but it's very much opportunistic. This car isn't being stolen now because it's a high value car or in high demand..it's being stolen because it's super easy to steal them now. Make the cars harder to steal is much easier than trying to end the act of theft.
This is something we as consumers and owners need to demand that gm at the very least, fix in future cars they sell if not offer proper fixes to existing ones. And in the meantime, corrections to the car will be on owners. If you go around leaving expensive stuff in front of your house that is known to be easily taken, even places with low crime will see those things stolen when otherwise they wouldn't have been.
I dont doubt there are career criminals or pro car thieves out there. That's always been the case, but we see a problem with the camaro, not because there are more thieves in existence, just that the ones that are out there have turned their attention to a lower hanging fruit. I'm not interested in the impossible task of eliminating all theft. I am interested in not giving them my stuff on a silver platter. Which is what gm has done.
