Very true if no hidden kill switch. Two pieces of wire or one piece of wire and a screwdriver and I don't think it would even take 3 minutes to drive it away.

Pull the coil wire and put it in your pocket before you walk away.
And if you are concerned that the would-be theives would be smart enough to look for such things and to keep a spare on hand, you could even devise a fake coil wire to put in its place.
Of course as already mentioned, this would be only if no other means had been built in. A battery with a switch in a locked trunk to prevent it from even being turned over with hotwire attempts would be better. This would hopefully make any would-be thieves realize it's time to move on when nothing happens on the first attempt. Prevents any arcing and sparking damage, too.

You can get a GPS car tracker for under $100 and sync it to your cellphone. it's awesome and a sinking sensation to see your car being stolen in real time on your cellphone screen! :CRY:

My car has a great security feature called Hillborn injection, it is a bugger of a thing to get right if you dont have the knack, I have been doing it for more than 20 years and still get it wrong sometimes.
