That's old.. the current AM all have the "pulsing/crystal keys" now.. yes AM corporate parents used to be Ford.. The V12 is still on the same line. You do know back in the days, they had to scrub Ford logos off AMs because of the anti American sentiment in the Middle East?

I don't get it...

When Ford owned both Volvo and Aston Martin, they reused some of the Volvo keys and rewrapped 'em with an AM logo...

I'm not sure what's funnier?
a: your always sarcastic hilarious in your face comments calling it an emotional control unit
or
b: Being so fucking dumb you don't know what ECU stands for



Either way i approve of your post.

Don't VW's and audis still use the switchblade sorta key
But porsche uses a single key like a one piece
