1) Agreed, completely stupid and useless.
2) Absolutely awesome. No attempted messing around for the key when you're carrying something with two hands to put in the trunk.
3) I could go either way on this one, but I do think the electronic allows more precise positioning.
4) Agreed. I would pay NOT to have this as well.
5) With apologies to MightyMouseTech, it's because you're Canadian. Come down here and you'll see how useful they are 9+ mos. out of the year. That said, I won't buy a car without heated seats either. They're useful and awesome for the other +/- 3 mos. out of the year.

Others I can't stand:
1) Automatic braking, lane guidance, and automatic lane change. Unless the car is completely driverless, let me operate the damn car.
2) Yes, I hate blind spot monitoring. I have spent the time in a car with that feature and, no, I never got used to it. It was always a distraction.
3) Auto Stop/Start
