Hmm I always wondered if they just start the car via a signal on the CAN bus. A lot of those are exposed via OBDII, so you wouldn't even need to tear anything up if you had the adapter. Maybe that's not it, precisely, but engineers are lazy when they don't care. I bet there's a simple way to "hotwire" most modern cars.
