To anyone who's think to buy a new car with keyless feature, you might check this out before making decision:

You’ve recently spent $64,000 on your flash new BMW with keyless entry. But when you wake up one morning, you discover, in a different kind of flash, that it’s gone, stolen by hacker thieves who used the car’s keyless feature to pinch your luxury ride....

No problem dude!

I'm sure that will also apply in any cars nowadays with keyless feature. If they can steal a BMW they can also steal a Mazda CX5, Acura ILX, TL, RL, Nissan, Infinity, etc. IMO it's really a stupid invention, make driver lazier, effortless and too easy for thieves now...
