The lowest the DC3 CS4905S-KIT ( aka non-CSX model) has ever been is $220, which was a day October 2023, which I got installed on my 2014 Toyota Sienna. It's been fantastic.
The non-CSX version doesn't get lower than this price though, but often dips down to $250. Make sure you order with the free harness though when you place the order. The guy told me so many times people don't do that and they have to reschedule the install and charge for it.
Here was lowest price for the non-CSX 2 remotes, 3+ mo ago in October. Just a data point if you're wondering how this price compares for premium drone capability.

If you get the seasoned installer @ bestbuy they will able to program it to work with your key fob ... Close>>>>> open>>>>> close(hold for 3 seconds) and start the car.
Our normal key fob will remote start by pressing lock 3 times.
Recently got a new car before winter, paid near full price because there were no deals, and BestBuy couldn't get it to work. It wasn't their fault, it was Nissan's. Wasted half a day, but got a full refund.
Compustar remote will work for 3000 ft and tell you the car has started.

What I will say is that it is not nearly as convenient for a manual car because there is an arming process. You have to put the car in neutral, pull the parking brake, and then take the key out of the car. The engine will keep running. Once you've opened the driver side door, exit, and shut the door again a countdown begins. The tech can set it how long it lasts, I think the longest is like 30 seconds? At the end of the countdown the engine will shut off and the car will lock all the doors. The remote start system is now armed and ready for use.
HOWEVER, if you unlock the doors and open ANY door (including passenger and rear doors) the remote start disarms itself and you need to start the car up and restart the arming process from the beginning.
The are other systems that have workarounds for this, but it's kind of a legal grey area since the procedure is a safety thing. Best Buy requires their installers to do this because otherwise somebody (including yourself) might go back into the car and put it into gear. Then you might use the remote start and your car might slam into somebody or pull out into traffic. The parking brake will help prevent this, but if you didn't know and kept trying the remote start when it fails then it could mess up your parking brake, clutch and/or starter.
In hindsight I don't think I would have gotten it. I think it cost me about $450 all said and done + $60 a year for drone mobile

now I would like to cancel it and buy this LTE version as both are same price.
So the old fob keys wont work at all right
Do any one know if it is a key start model, will the manual keys still work ?
I tried to cancel earlier this week when I heard that I needed to "sacrifice" 1 car key (technician need to wrap it up close to the module and let it always inside), also reducing the remote distance as well.
I chatted with CS agent and they told they couldn't cancel it for some reason and told me to wait until I get a pick up notification.
