Thieves have a special physical key that unlocks most doors. Once inside the car, they connect their computer to the OBD which is usually under the stiring wheel. In 2 minutes, they can access the car computer and reprogram the key with a new one. This new key now can starts the car and off they go. So protecting your key will not work. Best protection? Install an OBD lock, put a Motion Alarm Dash Cam in your car with high DB (some have an alarm to be used inside your home to alert you), use a wheel lock. You can also, when using your car outside your parking lot, disable your key so that it does not emit any signal (each key is different, ask your dealer). This also saves the battery inside your key.

All of these vehicles except the Lexus are "Balloon Cars". What is a balloon car? Lower end brands like Toyota, Nissan, etc., frequently have large balloons on their dealer lots to attract attention and customers. I have not seen balloons at my Porsche or Rolls Royce dealerships. Why do so many people who have garages park their cars/trucks in the driveway? To impress the neighbors or too much junk in the garage? Last time I checked, garages were designed to put the car inside and close the door. Not only does it keep the car out of the weather but from thieves. Only tacky people park out front.
