Yeah he did, but that's pretty much unavoidable with a low-fronted car in California where there's often quite a dip down to the road and then back up again.

Saraj very nice, 300k car and such a simple key to turn it on lol

have to agree the key is a let down, a proximity sensor/smart card and push button start would be cooler:lol:

I don't know why they have those ridiculous dips in the roads over in the US, some places you really need an SUV......

It is a push start.

The button is on the sterring wheel.

Yep it's a push start, but you still put in a conventional key and turn it, then hit the start button. I assume it was a weight saving issue rather than anything else........

Love that engine sound :w00t:

I'd expect full retinal scanning personally.

dont like the joy stick thing for the sat nav etc, IMHO thats harder to use on the fly than a touchscreen.
