Maybe consider a Car Bandit Alarm for this one since the Subaru was stolen!

STOLEN QUAD BIKE RECOVERED ARRESTS MADE
WA Police were successful in recovering a stolen Quad Bike in suburban
Perth in February 2007. The Quad Bike was stored in a shipping container and thieves used a bobcat to break into the container.
Within seconds of the Quad Bike being stolen, the owner of the bike received a phone call from the bike to advise of the theft.
How can a Quad Bike call its owner when it's been stolen? Easy ? when it has an EziTrak? GPS Security and Tracking System installed.
Within seconds of the bike being tampered with, Mike Jones (the owner of the bike) received a phone call on his mobile from the EziTrak? unit in the bike to advise of the theft.
With the help of EziTrak?'s WA distributor Ashley Electrical, Mike was then able to track the bike and get its location to within 6 metres. Police were advised of the location of the stolen Quad Bike. The bike was recovered and arrests made in relation to this and other matters. The bike's owner Mike Jones said;
?This is the first time that I've had a stolen item returned to me. To know that the thieves have been arrested is just a bonus!?
A good result all round! Our EziTrak? customer got his stolen Quad Bike back and the police made arrests. All this from an EziTrak? which can be installted for around $1,300!

URGENT PRESS RELEASE
AUSSIE MADE GPS DEVICE BEATS NSW POLIC
Sydney driver Michael Simotas was charged with speeding by police officers using a handheld radar, allegedly doing 85 km/hr in a 60 km/hr zone.
But Michael had a secret weapon in his car ? an EziTrak? GPS Security and Tracking System. Michael was able to download the black box from his EziTrak? unit which provided accurate, tamper-free data of the vehicle's traveling speed, position and direction.Through this data, Michael was able to prove that his vehicle briefly touched 61 km/hr at the time he was charged but was mostly traveling at 57 km/hr.
During the subsequent case and appeal, a GPS expert gave corroborating evidence and attested to the accuracy of GPS and the inability to tamper with the data. This is the first case in NSW where GPS data has been admissible in evidence to contest the accuracy of police radar.
So what is EziTrak?? EziTrak? is a security & tracking system which gives car and vehicle owners personalised, self-monitoring with no ongoing back-to-base fees. EziTrak? utilises GPS and GSM technology to give the owner instant tampering notification, control, tracking and emergency alert information over the phone.
EziTrak? has an internal Black Box Recorder logging speed, position, time and date from 1 to 255 hours. This information can be downloaded to a PC and then played back on a moving map display. The data is accurate and cannot be tampered with.
EziTrak? was designed by
Sydney based company Rojone Pty Ltd. EziTrak? is manufactured in Australia and is sold throughout the country as
well as being exported to the UK, USA and many other countries.

I used to be an agent for their marine Boat Bandit Alarms a few years ago & still have a couple units in our boat and 4wds!
Can't beat them IMHO!
With the number of Caravan, 4WD and "Equipment" thefts of late - its only going to get worse as the economic malaise around th world puts people out of work and leaves them high in debts they can't pay!
Many will turn to property crime "theft", to meet their obligations IMHO.
Cheers!
