Selectable post parking illumination-keeps your lights on after parking your car for a user defined period of time(from 1 second to 4 minutes)

$600-$700 is a lot for an alarm IMO... Is the car and the stuff inside worth that much t drop that kinda flow on it??? Look at it his way, if your car does get jacked, do you want to be out the money for the alarm (a lot or a little) PLUS your deductible??? I mean if the car was worth like over $20G's and is a forsure theft magnet (i.e. ITR), then I'd spring for an alarm over $500, but for an Si like mine, I'll pass... My $300 Viper is plenty enough to make me sleep easy at night. All an alarm is doing is buying you time and peace of mind. Some people require more peace of mind and thus pay a lot more for their alarms. 
But for that price range, I'd look into Compustar's. I've heard good things about those....

If they knew you had it in advance, they could plan away around it before even breaking into your car. No car alarm is theft proof, but your chances of having your car stolen with an alarm are very very slim to none.

I spent $300 for my tint and alarm. It's good enough.
instead of spending $700+, get theft coverage on your car.

If you are going to get a alarm look into getting compustar. Honestly I think its the best their is and it comes with a little remote lcd that is a pager as well. Search for it on the web.

Instead of spending $600-$700 on an alarm that you have to trust will work, get a cheaper one that includes an lcd pager remote so you know EXACTLY when someone is breaking into your car and how they are doing it. That way you can run out there with a big bat and kick some ass. I think the Clifford matrix rs3 has that.
