Yes...look under your driver side dash for this.

If your ignition lines look like this, you have no aftermarket alarm.
 
Or pull out your mall pgm fuse and turn the key to accessory. Listen for the number of chimes and reference it to the manual and it'll you what options you have
 
If you are looking to buy a keyless remote, you minds well buy a legit alarm and if you want remote start. Those Key fobs are not cheap at all. I ended up putting a Viper car alarm with remote start and love it. It will page my remote up to a mile (yeah right) away and let me know what is going on. But the remote start is nice and is does have some great range.

here it is, and no I didnt pay that price.

Easiest and cleanest way is to look at the RPO codes. They are listed on a sticker on your trunk lid.

I forget which code to look for remote aka factory alarm etc.

well i checked the codes in the trunk area.appears i have the remote lock feature,but i do not have the alarm system.that does seem weird to me.this car has power locks,power windows,and power seats,but no alarm??i found that the code for factory installed alarm is UA6.i saw a few codes that were very similar but not that exact one.
