Automatic belts were a dim-bulb, cheap-ass way for the automakers to satisfy demands for a "passive" system, without springing for air bags. Pointless complexity, to my mind, as you must buckle the lab belt anyway.
I believe some of the examples previously cited here didn't have motorized belts, but belts that attached to the door.

I agree with you, still it's a good feature, tho I wish the lapbelts would be integrated. I knew when I bought a 92 that it did'nt have the pas airbag. I drive by myself most of the time anyway. But If I do have to bring my kids, they'll seat in the back with the seatbelts of course.
