I guess some people just don't like technology. Maybe they are really still using pagers! Lmao!

Scion if you are reading this, add proximity key with push start to the FR-S as an option!
Yes, please be an option.

How are you guys going to compare keys that have been in use for over 2,000 yrs to pagers that have been in use for about 10 yrs.

It is more convienent to start your car faster but guess what, you still have to manually open your car. I don't like push starts due to the fact that the key fob is so damn expensive to replace. I see the push start on the same level as paddle shifters and automatic transmissions. Lazy shit!

My door unlocks when I touch the inside of the door handle. Wonderful, again, in the pouring rain when I'm running to the car.

Touch-entry is purely for laziness, not at all convenience.
I guess I'm too ol skool since I grew up in the 80's where everything in the car was manual; door locks, windows, heater and a/c controls, no power steering, no abs, no traction control, the ol skool 4-Hi and 4-Low shifter next to the 5 speed rough transmission on my old Toyota pickup.
