My E53 X5 has been at the dealer for service for about a week and a half (whole other story). So I have been driving a 328 four door loaner with the new style key/push button start and no CA. I have to say that even though I have been driving this car for almost two weeks - I find the whole put the key thing into the dash, press the button to start, and push button to stop, press key thing in and pull out of dash to be a huge PITA.
Given the option I would much rather have a conventional key. But since that option doesn't exist I ordered CA on my new E70 X5 for no other reason then I just don't want to have to deal with sticking that thing in the dash and taking it out every time I get into and out of the car. The other features of CA such as touching the door handle to open etc., seem fairly useless IMO. Especially for $1,000. So, at least in my case, BMW got an additional $1k out of me just because I hate the whole key system/push button thing. YMMV - but that's my .02.
