IBC Releases Annual List of the 10 Most Stolen Cars

The IBC's annual list of the most popular cars is out.  Except the list isn't gauging consumer popularity, it's with thieves.

This year's hot target is the 2000 two-door Honda Civic Sir.  Number two on the list is the 1999 two-door Honda Civic Sir.

The Civic replaces the 2009 Toyota Venza 4-door which was on the top of the IBC's list in 2011.

The list includes seven 4-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicles, including four Ford F350 trucks.  The IBC reports that many of these higher-end vehicles are targeted by organized crime for shipment overseas. There were 82,411 vehicles stolen in Canada during 2011.
