Hi guys I have been lurking here for a while researching for a new IS350. I am a install shop manager on LI and do remote starts on similar vehicles with the smart key setup like you guys have, including my Infiniti FX45. I actually have an IS 250 coming into my shop for remote start in a week or so. It looks do-able according to my tech info. The only thing will be the part where you "take over" the car. Since there is no key to get in and turn in the IS, an unauthorized driver can get in and steal your ride. I have some ways around that, but will need to test them first. I will let you guys know how it comes out.

Per Toyota website, a build your own Avalon Limited w/ option combo B is $37,095 delivered before options. I added every accessory, including the remote start, and came up with a total MSRP of $39,333. Guess I was $667 short. We may differ in our definition of "loaded", mine is the highest end model with everything I can get on it, hence, my original comment.
