They don't use Allen keys in cars anymore since everyone has a set at home. Torx keys were next, but those too are becoming easy to find, so now the fad is Torx with a hole/pin in the middle. My brother-in-law is a car mechanic and says that those are easy to break, and expensive to replace, as they're not very popular yet. Just perfect for automotive applications.
