It definitely becomes second nature.
It's like the "auto-start" feature - turn and release the key. I had a 325 loaner for 2 days, and was never able to start the car on the first try. I kept expecting it to start like the 5. With the 3, you have to do it the old-fashioned way, hold it till it starts.

phatrosh,
I'll meet you in Bakersfield and we can go together from there. I live close to Fresno, off the freeway 99. I was thinking of asking Pbarch1 through a PM if he wanted to meet in Bakersfield since he is from there. I was going to ask him what time he is going to leave so we can carvan there together. I be doing that some time in the middle of this coming week. So let me know what you think? I have about a three hour drive, it not as far as you. Another member is also coming from San Jo.

Hahaha. When i first got the car, i was like wtf? So troublesome. Like Iceman said, its practically second nature now. I step on the brake pedal now on every car i drive when turning the engine over...LOL
I can't help it now. I feel 'naked' without doing so.
