the MINI is wired so YOU CAN listen to the game when the key is not in the ignition...not sure about other auto makers do remember the old VW beetle had an AM radio that could come on at anytime (probably because of the cold-war at the time)~

Yes, just don't press on the brake pedal before pushing the start button.

Ugh, Toyota problems... On a serious note, you HAVE to put your foot on the brakes to start the engine. NOT doing so will only turn on the accessories.
