Sweet gravy train riding baby Jesus, is that a turn key ignition? You get your lazy ass out of the car, jam that crank handle onto the crankshaft, and spin that mother til you hear a boom!
I sense sarcasm in your post...


But I would gladly buy a car that didn't have all that crap (although the crank handle start is a bit much). There is practically nothing like the sweet sound of side draft carbs on an inline 4 or 6 at WOT. If we didn't have smog check, I'd be looking into a pair of down draft Webers for the FRS. Oh, and don't forget to throw traction control out, too!
