Wanted whole, and for its parts

Few sedans inspire the demand a WRX does, so a clean one is worth taking whole for resale to its committed audience - while its turbo boxer and AWD components are prized by a tuning and parts scene, giving a stolen one a strong second market.

How it is taken

A keyless performance sedan lifted cleanly - the relay and recovery detail is on the tracking guide.

What protects it

A monitored control room reacting to unexpected movement, with a radio-frequency layer given how coveted it is, recovers a WRX; the app cannot.
