Default 2005 E60 comes with 1997 key! Can I upgrade to push start ?
So I just purchased an e60 545is with an SMG transmission, surprisingly.. it comes with the same key that came in the e39's!! Any idea how to upgrade to the OEM push start system? Also if the push start was in a package what else would be missing from the car ?! Considering it came with PDC!

Thank you!

Huh, I didn't realize that my 2005 545 had an OEM push start system! And I have all the options besides HUD. Maybe because it is a manual?
