I love the start button. As someone said earlier it was put there to imitate an F1 car. 
Come on, can't hate that!
I can't tell you how many times I've gotten into my old Civic, turn the key twice and move my left hand over trying to push a start button. *DOHH*

That sounds cool, but I think it's incorrect. If I'm not mistaken, F1 cars don't have starter motors (extra weight). They are started with an external motor and a long shaft.

Actually, I used to start my car like that as I had my HID's wired to run 24/7 as my daytime running lights and I wanted to reduce flicker on start-up to help the bulbs last longer. Starting it that way prevented the lights from going on and off and back on during start up. It does shorten the start-up time a tiny bit.

It's a similar trend across all internet car forums...

People will criticize an aspect of a car while having absolutely no clue what they're talking about.
