This question is hard to answer since there are so many ways to calculate the most stolen car. Some say the Honda Accord while others say a Toyota Camry and even others say a BMW. Also the results can be skewed according to the number of cars, for example there are more Honda Accords than Lamborghini's produced so the number of stolen Accords will be higher, but the Lamborghini is probably most likely to be stolen. Since there's many ways to calculate the most stolen there are several assosciations that do it and each do it differently.
The National Insurance Crime Bureau, NICB for short, rates cars according to their representation in the media, for example a car that is reported most often to the media will be higher on the list. NICB also is not concerned with the year of the car and they don't take into consideration the number stolen with the number produced, thus the results may be skewed. The NICB's top ten list is the following:
1. Toyota Camry
2. Honda Accord
3. Honda Civic
4. Oldsmobile Cutlass/Supreme/Ciera
5. Jeep Cherokee/Grand Cherokee
6. Chevrolet Full-Size C/K Pickup Truck
7. Toyota Corolla
8. Ford Taurus
9. Chevrolet Caprice
10. Ford F-150 Pickup Truck For their top 100 here's the link: http://www.bankrate.com/brm/news/insurance/Top_100_Vehicle_Thefts.pdf The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, NHTSA for short, determines the percentage rate of the car being stole by dividing the number stolen by the number manufactered. For example, let's say that 2,000 Honda Accords were stolen and 20,000 were produced, the stolen percentage would be 10%, with this the car would be placed on the list accordingly. The NHSTA also does not take car years into consideration. The NHSTA's top ten list is as follows: 1. Chrysler Town & Country MPV
2. Dodge Intrepid
3. Chevrolet Metro
4. Acura Integra
5. Plymouth Neon
6. Dodge Neon
7. Dodge Stratus
8. Mitsubishi Mirage
9. Suzuki Esteem
10. Chrysler LHS For their top 200 try this link:
