To the OP...once you use FAST key, you will never want to go back. The month my car was down I was missing it. You really have no idea how nice and fast it is to get into the car without pushing a button.

The fob contains an RF chip in it that is for theft protection, and does not need to be powered to operate. generally these RF chips are waterproofed in case you happen to submerse the fob on accident. Do you really think the engineers were THAT stupid when they designed the system?
So true. I went wake boarding forgetting my FAST Key was still in my board shorts. I freaked out when I found out after swimming for several minutes. Remove was still working and has been ever since. Almost a year now.

They dropped quality recently. It does have a tape-like hiss to it.

I wish they had the SSS packages in Canada for the GSRs. I really wanted the HIDs and the spoiler, but Canada always gets shaft on car models and options. Now I gotta find the spoiler and HIDs myself.

Yeah, that sub isn't really helping....

^^ Agreed. And I asked the dealer how much the big spoiler was, and it's like $1500 alone!!!

The big spoiler serves me another purpose.... It covers the awesome glare from HIDs on halogen-fitted headlight housings on lifted off-road trucks following me during the night. I don't get blinded no more....

i love it. 6 disc is perfect, i use audio ports as well. HIDs are awesome. The key rocks, only thing i dont like is the button on the trunk....but ill make the sacrifice. The sub is perfect.

This thread really is pointless... It's kinda like debating which color is best.

Personally I am digging the SSS package. And with some negotiating you can probably get it for half of retail, so it's a decent value.
