Couple of things I think Honda could learn from my old Alfa 147:
Electronics "active" for a few seconds after turning off the ignition
Lots of functions remain active for a few seconds (30?) after removing the key, so you can pull up windows, open the boot, switch the stereo back on (which stays on, so you can run off with the keys but keep the wife happy with a bit of Robbie Williams 'til you get back), etc. In particular, I'd love the retracting wingmirrors on my EX to continue retracting after I've shut down... it's only a couple of seonds, but it's annoying. This feature also allows the Alfa to offer...
"See you home" headights
Headlights turn off when you turn the ignition off, but pulling the light stalk towards you (ie flash full-beam) brings them back on temporarily, for 30 seconds per pull. Great for letting me see my way from my driveway to my door without treading on all the snails that lurk out there...
