Sad to hear about the loss. Robberies have sever implication emotional and financial implications. About shifting from corolla to civic, I do not think it could be the solution, because corrollas are their target due to it's high demand and if more people start to shift towards civic/city, they would start targeting these cars. Even worst because the cars like Civic can not be stolen (due to immobilizers) that would increase the risk of snatching. Against snatching I think insurance might be the only option that could provide you some consolation and piece of mind.
BTW one can only hope but the future of our nation does not seem to be going in right direction.
