Can a subaru be stolen
a friend of mines had his subaru stolen and the insurance company said that it was an inside job. The insurance company said that the car has a smart chip so that if the ignition is broken it wont start is this true or are they just bull****ting him. Or what would a thief have had to do to steal the car.

My WRX doesn't have a "smart chip" in the key.
My friend's Lexus has a "smart chip" in his key and it was stolen.
Boom's right. Any car can be stolen.

I read on SpeedHawaii about a guy's car getting stolen and the cops found it It was being stolen with a tow truck so any car can be stolen just depends on how bad they want it..

people can get smart chips. such as service dealershipswho can order them. someone probably was able to get the hold of the key by the car's serial number. depending on the car some are harder to get like the european cars.

No, Ford didn't even know the car was missing until they did an inventory and discovered it. I'm sure the car was recovered, as we do find a lot of stolen cars.
What's surprising is that in my experience is that thieves are stealing a lot of neons.
And of course Honda and Acura. Had three civic si coupes stolen from ward theaters in about a week period. All had their instrument clusters stripped because it has a tach.
