We didn&#8217;t manage to get the picture of\u00a0the key\u00a0but we can tell you that it has boot release function on the key itself. There&#8217;s also another function for the key itself.

The thing that we like the most is what we mentioned yesterday. <strong>Steering mounted paddleshift<\/strong>. We think it is handy because\u00a0you can easily switch gears when you turning in directions.
