Have comfort access on my 550. Love it! One "issue" though. I had the key fob in my pocket while washing the car and the car kept locking and unlocking when rinse water flowed over the door handles. I now wash the car with the key fob in the house!!

I didnt get CA, but do have the start/stop button. I kinda like it, I know I still have to put the fob in and then press the button....but it impresses the chics!

I have CA on my 550. Love it. Keep the key in your pocket, touch the door handle and it unlocks, jump in, push start, off you go. Never touch the key. After leaving the car, touch the door keyhole and the car locks. Piece of cake!

Dumb question but can you still actually put the key IN and impress the chicks...just for fun?. Or will they be more impressed if you just walk up and get in and go? haha Secondly does CA unlock the other 3 doors too at the same time or do you have to use the key or button inside? I ordered it and think it's going to be awesome!

Yes, YES, and yes (through I-drive menu you can click on a function that lets you open your door only, or all doors).
