from people who seem to know their stuff says you need a TWICE uit, and unless the $$ means nothing to you, not from a dealer where it may cost you more than $1000. There are used ones (with at least one key included) that may be a slight risk but can be had for not much money. But also pick up an extra fob on EBAY. Then you need two keys cut from you VIN I think only from a dealer(it's both mechanical and electronic), then have someone with a tech 2 [program both keys to the "new" Twice. Mechanics, even INDY's will charge a not negligible fee each time they plug in that $1500 TECH 2 for you, which is understandable. You'll save by doing 2 keys at once. My dealer, if you buy thge keys from him, will program them.
When you have at least 1 good key, you can always get a spare cut and the programmed, for a manageable price.
Any one with only one key to one of these cars is living on the edge.
