Not in the top 10 in Chicagoland... The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) puts out a yearly update for most major markets of the top 10 cars stolen in that market. You can see the numbers for 2000 here: http://www.nicb.org/services/top_stolen_cars2.html
What's interesting is how different different some markets are, which makes it appear more of "what's in style" as opposed to what can be exported. For example, the Jeep Cherokee/Grand Cherokee is the most stolen vehicle in Detroit, while that car doesn't even make the top 10 in Cleveland--only 150 miles away...
Also, when I was buying insurance thru State Farm, they don't offer a LoJack discount (at least in Chicagoland). They only offer an anti-theft discount. Their logic is that LoJack doesn't prevent a car from getting stolen, it only aids recovery. Unfortunately, they feel way too few police agencies have LoJack to even bother offering a discount.
