More than technically. Made in Canada, just like the Camaro. So are a bunch of Chrysler minivans, IIRC. You know, American cars

If I remember right Tiff's Invicta only has a key to unlock the doors. Has a push button starter.

Nope! The starter is engaged by flooring the gas pedal.

Went out and checked. It is a combo of a dash button and the gas pedal to start it. No key to start.

I also remember older Chev's (I think) that had a starter push button on the floor at about 1 o-clock to the top of the accelerator ... turn key on, heel on gas pedal, toe on the starter button ....
