1 key, 2 cars

Just picked up a F31 to go with my F80. Is it possible to link both cars to one key? Both has comfort access. Would be cool if possible, don’t need to think about which key i need to grab.

Probably not but this reminded me of an interesting story. My dad had a 1994 Accord and in 1999 bought an Acura TL.

A few years later my cousin gets in the Honda and throws me the Honda keys and drives off. I was like wth is going on?

Turns out both keys which were on the same keychain were the same exact cut. So I was able to subsequently use the Acura keys for both cars (could not do it the other way around because the Acura key had a chip)

I read at the time there were 20k different unique cuts so it's like the lottery to have the same key in the same household for two cars.
