      Well, the car got kicked out of its garage space to make room for the M3 and I must park it down the driveway because I don't trust the thing on my slanted driveway. I just want to be able to quickly disable it to add another level of theft prevention and then be able to re-enable it when I need to move it around or drive it.

          Fuel pump kill switch under the dash or in a discreet location.

          Really easy, if you have one, is to take out the relay box for the OBC. Bridge the power and ground wire, but add a switch inline. Will kill the ignition signal and you'll be rid of that fucking box that will fail and have you chasing your tail for days....

              Meh, just cut the harness at the fusebox. Less tedious.

                    Wire the ignition switch so whenever the key is turned it blows the horn instead

                      It has an m42. It's probably immobilized by the engine itself...

                        The only way your car is gonna disappear from your driveway is if you run into a professional thief, which in that case you're fucked since most of them will straight up steal your shit in broad daylight with a tow truck.

                        The more realistic concern is people breaking into the car to steal random shit.. unless you live in a really shitty neighborhood anyway

                          Break key off in ignition then weld all the doors shut.

                            Just cover the car in dildos with suction cup ends.

                              File down some of the gears on your ring gear, turn your crankshaft with a 22mm and match the filed down the teeth with your starter gear.

                                That is actually kind of genius. Install a 2-way switch deep under the dash to change between the horn and the starter, cheap burglar alarm.
                                Drive it hard. Maintain it well.
