I have a Stealth model 3000.  It has a flashing light, sensors for the trunk,
engine compartment, and doors, a kill switch for the ignition, a valet
parking delay button, and the main reason I got the alarm:  a proximity
detector for the cabin area.  The basically scans the area that would be
enclosed by the top and windows if the top is up.  It works if the top is up
or down, if the back window is open or closed, and even with the hard top on.

Total price with installation was about $350 with 2 remote controls.  I'm
happy with it, and it doesn't get false alarms.
