>OK, as with the lead in the gasoline, there's the cost of extraction (or neutralization, who knows), but the really stupid gimmick was the "non-smoker kit" that you could buy with some cars.

A lot of cars now come standard with no apparatus for cigarettes. For a little extra you can add a "Smoker's Convenience Package" -- a cigarette lighter and an ashtray.
