If your 08 has the engine immobilizer then the TechStream tool is required to add more keys. You can buy the transponder keys for about $10 (the basic keys, not the ones with the built in keyless entry remote). If someone in your area has a Techstream, it only takes about two minutes to program the system for the new key (or take a roadtrip down to CT).

When i bought the car (new) it came with 3 keys.one with the buttons that did everything,one with no buttons that would manually unlock door and trunk and start the car and one key that would open doors and trunk but wont start the car.
Doing a bit of research seems to have many locksmiths in the area that offer chipped keys, not sure how much but i'll assume its a long way from $200
