If you turn the radio off after switching off the ignition and then turn it back on again the radio will turn on. This works even after the key is removed from the ignition switch. The same seems true for the electric windows. Apparently there is a timer that limits how long after switching off the ignition, accessories can be used although I don't know if the radio will eventually shut itself off if left on accidentally. I didn't find any information on this in the owners manual. Personally, I prefer to know that everything is off when I remove the key.   I stand by my remarks regarding ride and handling.

Just get in the car and depending on your model's stereo, press to turn it on and boom, you have sound. No key needed.   Now for th rest of the electronics, iirc, the rest of things just lose power after a door is opened.
