Yes, the '07's have immobilizers.

Either this thing had to be towed (thief, repo, tow yard for parking in a no-no zone), stolen by someone who had a key, the OP left the key in the car, or a very good thief knows how to get around the immobilizer.

Sorry, boss. I'll keep an eye out in SF (while I'm at work) and San Lorenzo / Hayward when I get home. Good luck.

Okay... Then we need more information.

What happened? Where do the OP leave it?

Just doesn't add up. The Immobilizers are not easy to circumvent.

The sti can definitely be stolen. Ask the homies from Jersey about that. Luckily it can be replaced.

Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full.

All STi models are equipped with an immobilizer beginning with a build date of 01/2004.

How much do you pay a month/annually? I've installed these professionally but never looked into how much they cost in the long run.
