Hi,
My car came with only one master key. I can get a new master key from the dealer, but it is pretty pricey. Are there any other options. I really only need the key in case I lose the one I have.

I found a local dealer that sells the "master" key for the same $190. That price includes the programming of the key to match the car. Apparently there is some box in the car that has a serial number and the key must have that serial number to start the car. Also, they need proof of ownership (registration, insurance) and the VIN before they well sell you the key. Then you have to take the car to have the key programmed.
