I love Advanced Key, Comfort Access, whatever it's called
Especially being able to lock the car by hitting the tiny lock button on my own door handle and walk away BEFORE my passengers have even closed their own doors (at which point the car recognizes all of the doors are closed and emits a confirmation chirp from the alarm).

Hear, hear! When I get to the office and my hands are full with briefcase in one hand, large ice coffee in the other, change of clothes and bike magazines in between, all I have to do is contact the handle with my (admittedly massive) forearm and it locks for me! Chirp!

Great thread to remind me how lucky I am to have such a cool feature! It's my first car with keyless entry/ignition but I've gotten so used to it that I always forget to pull the keys out when we take my wife's X3.

The advanced key/start button might be the single most under-rated feature in this car. Too bad the key is not card shaped like a HID security card, though. That would make it even more convenient.

I love the advanced key, although I wish it was a tad smaller.
I remember tossing my gear bag in the trunk after a softball game and closing the lid, only to have it pop open. It took a couple of tries before I realized my key was in the bag and the car wouldn't let me lock it inside.

the key has to be big enough, so if the batery dies, you can still operate the car in manual. The key can also be put in the ignition. Likely never will though.
The only reason I splurged for the high end package was for smart key. Then once in that package, well might as well get the b@o, and then load it up too.

That's funny, because I'm constantly trying to put the key into the ignition when I drive our A4. It's not my daily driver so I can't get used to it.
