All articles pointing to this event seem to indicate they actually were able to start the engine. I'm having a hard time believing any car manufacturer would build this into the car. Any ideas how this was pulled off?

What actually happened? (perhaps they unlocked the doors with a text and then hotwired the car?)

I did not see a text-enabled remote engine starter on the Subaru web site, and the article was unclear if it was a stock Subaru or it they added an aftermarket "text your car" widget.

After-market "text" widgets are available: http://text2car.com/
