Default Did you know this about the gen 4's

This isn't really a big deal at all but I just thought it was cool. Did you know that gen 4's (at least the fully loaded models) stay powered until you open a door? For instance if your windows are down or sunroof is open you can still operate them after you turn the car off until you open your door. Do all cars do that? Iono I just thought it was a nice amenity.

yeah it always pisses me off when people get out of the car to fast. I always end up having to put the key back in or leaving the window open.

Yeah, I like that feature too. My other car doesn't have it. VERY irritating when it comes to rolling the windows up as you are about to park.

If you ever want a good alarm... get a Clifford one, and you can get the window/sunroof module, so that you can close the windows with your remote...

It's really too bad they are so expensive =\
