I've seen far too often, the younger generation relies on the E-brake far too much... Their reason: "So it doesn't jump when I let the clutch out after I start it!" Too funny!!

How many absolutely want the clutch start switch working?
My 2¢: I'd want it to be as if it came from the factory with the 6MT. Do I need a clutch start switch because I can't remember to push in the clutch before starting the engine? No. But if you're going to include the switch to cancel the cruise control, adding the start switch function should be doable. That's the way BMW would have done it.

Regarding your problem with the pop-up ads, upgrading to a premiere membership removes the ads. I think it's $10/year. Might be worth it to upgrade. I know I let mine expire a couple of months ago. Need to re-up…
