Garage
I like the complements when out (and have gotten a few also) but would be extremely put off and suspicious of anyone stopping at my house and asking about a car (or anything else of mine). I definitely do not advertise what I have (the driveway runs around the back of the house where the garage is, not in view of the street). IMHO more houses should be laid out like this - it deters crime and it lets the house read from the street as a place where people actually live rather than being a barn for storing junk or big SUVs.

The best security against potential thieves is simply not flaunting what you have. Yes I'll drive the cars but I think parking them in front of the house is the same thing as sticking a big neon sign on them saying "come back later and steal me".
