It should have them, just ask Emumessenger, he and others thought that the TL would do this. Many hi tech things and many low in the TL.

I prefer the start button can combined with Smart-entry system. When the car detects your card, everything is ready for you.

Prius has very useful maintenance screen, I like it listing all fcutnions and choices for you.

But, you have to swtich vent features on that screen, I don't like it. That's also why Acura starts to have those buttons outside of screen again.

Hybrid is the trend. AWD plus it would be the future for TL.

You know, with smart entry and exit, when the car unlocks for you when you near it, that's cool and all, but you couldn't go back after getting out to check to see if it actually locked. Every time you went back to check to see if your baby really locked, it would unlock. Hey, I'm just kidding around, but every now and again, I'll check to make sure my TLS doors did lock.

I think you can turn it off if you don't want it to "smart" open for you.

They develop new tech so fast, who knows what we're gonna get in the future...
