not yet unless you decide to disable the immobilizer, which in fact you don't i know..

 

you can integrate a remote starter that will actually retain the immobilizer, but overrides it during the remote start function. I have used both Viper and Compustar for remote starts. Further this is not cheap, so don't look for a bargain. It is not like adding a remote start to a Chevy.

 

i have a barametric remote start fitted to my car, it was £350 fitted here in the UK.

my car is on there web site.

I just see immobilizers, the finger print scan (youtube video)... hell they can have the car if I would have to go through all that

 

There is a way to install a remote starter. But you'll have secret a key (w/chip) in the car close to the ignition switch..

 

its remote start on a key fob, then to drive off you scan your finger print, if you dont scan and try to drive off it cuts out within a few feet.

its designed so you can warm up car etc, but the car cannot be driven without your fingerprint...all other remote starts you can steal the car if you come across it running.

 

back in the day maybe.

 

No you can't. if it is a quality unit with a quality installation

 

Right. If it was a Chevy, you'd have one from the factory.

 

True,

But obviously that option didn't help the company stay afloat.

 

I'm not an economist, but I think ****ty dealers and ****ty vehicles may have contributed.

 

I agree, it was mismanaged.
