I like cliffords. My buddy has one on his civic, and the sensitivity is sensitive but not so much that it'll go off to an exhaust passing by. Also it comes with a pager ( althought I think most do now ) Easily upgradable to say Remote start, auto windows or whatever.

ok python,clifford,viper...all dei all the same.... pick one up off ebay and all the stuff you want as well and then go to craigs list and find a installer who will toss it in for you...labor should be around 180-250 and the parts well the alarm will be about 180 shipped(if you go with rsx3.5 or 791x) and then whatever accy's you choose... $5-unlimited... but the best alarm you can buy would be a mossburg pump shotgun like a 500 they are really cheap and if anyone hears a shotgun pump they will run and run fast....that would run ya about $230 for a new one on sale... but you can find deals....
