it's a "valet" key, so in case you need to have a valet park your car for you at a hotel for example, you just give them that key instead of the one you normally use. the valet key only allows them to run your car to park, but it cannot be used to open your locked glove box or trunk... incase something important is stored

i tried the valet key today, it only fits the ignition, but cannot open the glove box. take note, this is the key with the silver cut.
the key that is plastic all over is what they call an "emergency key", to be used temporarily if your master key should be lost or misplaced.
