Default Tc Key

I am looking at buying a scion tc. However I have a question for you all.
Does a stock Tc (no scion security) come with the keyless remote built into the key?

Right. The stock tC comes with keyless entry (lock and unlock from the key fob) plus an engine immobilizer. If you pay to add the scion security, it adds the alarm stuff, but it's still controlled by the same key. This is different from the setup on the xA and xB.

if u read ur manual it would tell u not to block the key when turning the engine on. It says that it can prevent the car from turning on or automatically shut off.

i don't think a magnet will do anything to the chip in the key. i believe it works on either electrical or RFID, not magnets
