The best 2 car alarms that I know are Viper and Code Alarm.

The top of the line Viper Alarm is one of the best because you can track your car through Viper's website and check the status of the car. It also has all the features you want in a car alarm system.

Code Alarm is somewhat hard to find and does not have a website to track your car. But it does have a two way alarm system and remote start along with most of the security features the Viper has.

Both use sensors on a car and if those sensors are triggered then the alarm will be set off. Also both alarms have ignition kill which disables the ignition.

But a savvy car thief can always hotwire a car if they know how but today's vehicles are more complex and it can be tricky. Exceptions to this of course are Honda Civics and Honda Accords which are pretty easy to steal since you can just reach underneath the fender and disable the alarm, at least that's what I've heard.

Also even if the thief does disconnect the battery, they would need a tow truck to get the car out of wherever it is parked.

It's usually too big of a hassle considering that you are facing a federal offence of Grand Theft Auto and you will probably serve several years in prison. Besides stolen cars can be tricky to keep since they aren't under a clean title if you know what I mean.
