Comfort Access

The F10 doesn't require insertion of the fob in any slot for engine start, and in fact has no dedicated place for the fob/key inside the car. The car will start as long as a recognized key is in the right part of the car. This means that the Comfort Access option affects only the locking/unlocking of doors and trunk. I have found the $500 option on my 328i (two doors only affected) sensible, mainly because inserting a key and then pushing a button to start the car seems overly intricate; as a $1,000 option on the F10 (who needs it on the rear doors anyhow?) where the main purpose of the option is already standard equipment seems silly. It should be standard equipment.
