Every car can be stolen. The S2000 has an immoblizer but that isn't going to stop someone from towing the car away.

When there's a will, there's way... My E46 M3 Coupe was stolen this past January, and they said that stealing that car wasn't possible.

The immobilizer is in the manuel? Does that mean I have to keep my manuel in the car for the immoblizer to work?

Anycar can be stolen. Even those Mercedes with smart key that you can't duplicate. The thiefs have been known to put them on flat bed and steal it. Usually it's a network and they ship the car outside USA most of the time depending on the cars. My 2 cents.

I had a 00 GSR with the immobilizer and it was stolen from my apartment. I now live in a house with a garage and I park my Civic behind the S as a deterrent. I also have another form of deterrent .
