I don't think that it's animate in the sense that we used the term in the last few posts, however....despite both of our colorful experiences with cars. 
I'm only pointing out that your objection refers to sensory stimuli, not animacy. It's a non-operative addendum to the objection. That something is inanimate, does not prevent sensory stimuli, and sensory stimuli is not limited to animate objects. This is what I meant earlier, when I said that people attach things to consciousness and then form objections to those -as- consciousness. You've attached animacy to sensory stimuli, your objection is to the lack of sensory stimuli -as- animacy, not animacy.
I agree, btw, consciousness demands sensory stimuli. There must be something to be conscious -of- or the term is meaningless.
