Full physical access? It's hard, but seems an unrelated issue in regards to the linked post. The vulnerability here is that you can capture the key from air during transmission, without having physical access to the car or the key. We've had the technology to prevent this for a long time even before this system was designed. One could make a "good enough" argument for 1995, maybe even for 2005 although that would be seriously pushing it as that's after Blaster [1], but the fact that they're still selling vehicles with this system is really bad.
[1] The Blaster worm woke up a lot of people to the very real problem of security vulnerabilities https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaster_(computer_worm) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaster_(computer_worm)
