Unfortunately not. Later models with the chip-embedded-in-the-key security feature didn't come with the so-called "titanium" key.
 
Can any Acura dealer cut these keys? I have a blank which was given to me by Lee (great guy) from Cybernation. The last time I had a regular blank cut by Acura they messed it up and it barely works.

TIA

I had a locksmith cut an extra key. Works perfect, only charged $5.00, then it almost broke his machine. Duh,titanium is very hard.
 
The key is not what almost broke his machine. It was probably a dull cutting wheel or he didn't have the clamp tight enough on the blank. As per the FAQ it's made of nickel and copper. This is why it feels so heavy. If it were truly made out of titanium it would feel as though it were made out of aluminum because it would be so light..
 
>>If it were truly made out of titanium it would feel as though it were made out of aluminum

Nope. It would feel as if it were made of .... er .... um .... titanium! Ti is much lighter than aluminum. I have some Ti bolts and they feel as if they are made of air. Wait a minute ....

Ermmm... I think the Ti key come standard with earlier models and not avaliable in latter models cause of the implanted chip thingy...
