Default KEYLESS Ignition available now

The system below is made for bikes but it states on the site that it can be used on a car too. Uses a proximity sensor of sorts and all you need is a credit card sized transponder in your pocket (exactly like some of the newer AMG Mercedes Benz's). WHat do you guys think? Its a bit steep in price at $495 but I think this a step up.

I think this is something Honda should be doing on their new cars.

Most of the other manufacturers have been doing this for a few years now, why is Honda waiting so long? Regardless, I am just going to save my money and TOFTT.

That acronym is too abstract for me. What do ya mean?

I wouldn't mind having some sort of keyless ignition myself. Frankly, if installed right it probably could somewhat confuse thieves who are expecting a standard key ignition.

I say put the antenna in my seat, and embed the chip card in my ass. Give me a spare for when it's at the shop and I'm good to go.

Honda has been doing this on their RL's for many years.

FYI Honda is doing this on all 08 CRVs, Accords, and I believe Civics.

Are these 08 systems able to be installed onto the S or would an aftermarket be less complicated? I'm still waiting for a genius to come up with a remote top dropper, though a redesign of the release latches sounds mighty expensive.
