Flip-out Euro key or Push button start?

I know a lot of people like the "old school" key in the ignition, but to me it's not that big of deal. I'm just curious if anyone else thinks the Gen 6 camaro should have push button start like the vettes.

Just throwing it out there for discussion so don't

It would be sweet. But i don't know if it would be a selling point.

Yeah, I wish GM had come up with something better than the copy-of-the-audi flip out key junk... I would have preferred the old key and fob over it... but that's just me.

Yeah a lot of brands do it, Audi, BMW, VW, etc. I like it, fun to play with when you are bored.

I would love a push button start myself. They should have done that since the 2010 models. I mostly like it because cars have always started with a key, and this is an advancement over that. It makes me feel like cars are evolving.

My rental had a push start. I loved it. Didn't have to dig in my pockets. Would love to see it.

You have no idea what kind of reactions GM gets with trucks and Lambdas regarding the non-integrated fob.

Push button start I love it. I've owned a car with it and it was great.

Push button would be sweet but if not even a key start on the dash would be cool like my wife's Malibu.

The convenience is undeniable...especially if its a DD.

Plus, no more key scratches around the area where one inserts the key for ignition!

I loved my vette push button and key less entry. Just kept my fob in my pocket.

Whatever is cheaper and lighter in materials is what I'd be willing to go with. We want a lighter 6th gen, but then people come up with a number of new things to add to the car. Can't have it both ways.
