Actually, push button starters are an "old fashioned" technology, rather than "high-end tech". They were quite common in early cars, starting in 1912.

In fact, when garages actually repaired cars instead of just replacing parts, and virtually every working man was a shade tree mechanic, a common fix for a broken ignition switch was to install a momentary on switch as a push button starter. I even installed one on my 1995 S14.

Just sayin'...........
