I picked up a lanyard for my keys. Highly recommended if you have any worries about leaving them behind/in the car. I just throw it on like a set of dog tags and call it done.

Its not the push to start button on the z that gave me problem, its trying to find the push to start button on other cars i drive that made me laugh at myself

Go Fast Intentions and you'll never leave it running again!

Tazrek, Funny story. Question though, because you drive a Nismo, don't you normally put it in a gear before shutting it off or is leaving it in neutral plus handbrake secure enough for you?

So today I went to a local Best Buy and parked all the way in the back like usual. :tup: So I park, grab the keys, and walk into the store..:ughdance: well luckily I was in the store for no longer than 10 min because as I was coming back to my car, I opened the door, and realized I never turned off the car!!! :rofl2::rofl2:

Needless to say, the Z has another thing added to her Christmas list.....An exhaust!;)

Dude, your car coulda been stolen.............

My Z will do the fast multi-step beep if i walk away from the car while the car is running with the key on me.................and that'll alert me, get back to the car........it's loud enough to hear it.


OP; did you not get that beep?
Or did you leave the FOB in the car too while it was running?

I did the exact same thing last month. Not turning a key has taken some getting used to.

I've actually done that twice. :ugh2:

Glad you love your car. The experience only gets better with time. :tup:

Tell me about it. I've had the car six months and I still reach for ignition keys to turn the car off sometimes...lol.

Could it? I THINK the Z will disable itself if the keys arent being read. Maybe someone could get in (not sure about that either, might lock itself if its not seeing the fob), but pretty sure its disabled when keys arent readable and you attempt to drive away.

Then again maybe not, i vaguely remember forgetting my keys in my house while it was running and pulled out of the driveway...i THINK.

You can drive it away without the key... not sure how far or how fast. I just know you won't be able to turn it back on after you turn it off without the key.

You can absolutely drive away without the key, and the car will perform as normal... only problem is once you shut it off your not gonna be able to start it back up obviously. My mom did this in her MB CLS.. had to call AAA and get a tow home! lol
