I'm pretty close to buying an 04. I was just thinking though when they handed me the keys there was no key fob for an alarm or keyless entry. Is that not standard on a car this price and most priced way less?

I noticed some people have mentioned wheel locks in their list of mods. Does this mean the car comes factory without any sort of wheel locks?

What about Lojack does anyone have it and what does it cost? For those who dont know... It is a vehicle recovery system where they can track your vehicle if it is ever stolen so the cops can hopefully find it before it is too jacked up. I was thinking about this if i got the marauder. I had a mustang stolen out of my driveway. It was gone 12 hrs before I even knew it. It was recovered several days later after a high speed pursuit/crash. Of course in that case, i wish the car would have just disappeared becuase i didnt want it even after it was "fixed."

IMO Lojack is the way to go. It is in the neighborhood of $500. They also give you an alarm. Most of the NYPD vehcles are equipped with Lojack recovery systems. When the Lojack system is activated it sends out a signal that is picked up by the Police.
