Okay, I have noticed that there is a new fad among auto manufacturers as of late. Everyone seems to be implementing starter buttons to replace the traditional key twisting start. Some of the cars with this have the keys that you can leave in your pocket/purse/whatever, and the car unlocks when the key is in a certain vicinity and the push button starts the car when the key is in a certain vicinity. Now, I can see the benefit of push-button starting in this case. You just hop in your car and push a button, and away you go.
But some of the cars (I am blanking at the moment) either offer or promise to offer the push button when you still have to insert a key. I fail to see the benefit of this. Is there some gain to the push button in this instance?

 

Makes you feel cool?

 

I'm not to keen on the whole sensor key thing. Seems like its just another thing to go wrong.

 

yah, like it will unlock on wall street in NYC
