I look for the push button start once in a while, even with the key in my hand.

Does anyone feel inconvenienced when things dont work like your car?

Great minds think alike, the last car I SOLD was my 96 integra. 260,000 miles on it, ran soooo smooth never had any issues with her. Solid Beauty.

Happens to me too

One week I drove my gfs car a lot and when I got back to my IS for about 5 seconds I was trying to turn it on with my imaginary turning of the key lol

Vise versa ive tried turning her car on by pushing the imaginary push start button

Haha it's not any different for me really on my girlfriends car like some of you guys....08 Altima Hybrid - don't need the key either... just push the button on the handle to lock/unlock and it's push start too. Should be a standard feature on every car by now!!! lol

Never done that, but I haven't had the car for too long. I do find it amusing when a buddy drives and he goes to turn the car off like he's about to do it with a key.
