this problem would very easily be solved by an automatic fuel stabilizer dispenser. Heck, some lawnmowers come with a cap that automatically adds a drop now and then. I'm sure the car makers could come up with a more advanced method but this should be a no-brainer that is more environmentally friendly than periodically having to waste gas so it doesn't go bad.
I have some two+ year old gas that I put stabil in and it still runs all the tools fine. The fuel preserver is cheap and as far as I can tell, it doesn't go bad (makes sense...).
I think the "auto start" feature would be a problem, especially for cars kept in garages. Probably never see a system that starts a car without some owner action.

Tim K, bring some cheesesteaks with you. I'll trade you some good Philly sandwiches for some nasty bottom feeding lobsters that my fellow New Englanders go crazy for.
