Engine start remote

Yes you need to press the button before turning it off each time, it isn't a learning procedure it is an arming procedure.

For my Jeep it was a lifesaver because it took forever to come up to temperature and Wisconsin can have some pretty ugly weather. The Aveo comes up to temp pretty quickly though so hopefully I wont miss it very much.

More hassle than it's worth, I don't want to sit in my car taking extra time just to arm the remote start. I will have to pay attention to what I'm getting when I buy.

Well our 0 degrees Celsius is 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Suit yourself, it doesn't really take any extra time and never felt like any more of a burden than grabbing my coffee cup, and I certainly wouldn't recommend getting once meant for an automatic if you have a manual, but if you have an automatic then yes the other style is cheaper, easier to install, and less hassle using it. Also, if you get one have it professionally done. My old YJ was the easiest vehicle you could hope for in terms of simple wiring and plenty of room to get your hands on things but laying in the footwell for two hours working above my head was torture and I suspect trying to do it to an Aveo would be much much worse.

Arming the system for remote start is important for a manual transmission vehicle. Some arming procedures may be slightly different from others, but there needs to be some way of confirming the vehicle is in neutral before a remote start is allowed/attempted.

Leaving the vehicle run, without the key, until the door is opened and closed is sufficient for ensuring the vehicle is in neutral to my taste. I don't see the purpose of having to press and hold a button for a couple seconds.
