Hello:

What was the first model-year usage for the Accord micro chip ignition key ?

R.
 
Hello;

Thanks for reply.

Please see my post, and several answers, on 12/25 re my quest on the
Accord "Micro Chip" key.

Am trying to understand why, if it's so effective, the Accords are still
near the top of the stolen car lists ? Especially if it's been in use since
1998 ?

Any thoughts on ?

Thanks,
Bob

There have been many replys to this question. The answer in most of them
is that it is the older accords that are still on the list.

What lists are you seeing? Do you have any links?

Do any of the lists YOU'RE seeing actually list the years for which
they've collected the data?

Find lists that collect data SINCE 1998, and you'll find that the Accord
is no longer anywhere near the top.

You've been told this, but somehow you don't want to believe it.

No, I don't have any links. I'm just passing on what is being said in
this group.

The list I saw, and don't remember where I saw it, showed that the
stolen Accords were earlier models, like generation 3 and 4, not
current models.

That's exactly right. I was very interested in these details as well since
I owned 1998 Accord. All subsequent "top stolen" car type lists that did
happen to have year information showed late 80's and early 90's Accords as
most stolen. Camry is the same.

Aside from simple joy rides, vehicle theft happens for spare parts, which
becomes sparse and hard to find for old cars, thus salvaging old parts
becomes fairly profitable.

It'd be interesting to see what happens to the sixth generation Accords in
10 years.
