  • Some in xUS/xNA CA have purchased Apple CarPlay via BMW Connected Drive.
  • Some have paid a coder to enable the option but should their car get a future update it may wipe out the change.
  • El Ban has a MY2017, iDrive 5, lives in US and is still SOL, e.g. cannot purchase through BMW Connected Drive (US)

Did I miss anything?
I think in CA most of the upgrades for July/August cars were done at the dealer and not purchased via ConnectedDrive - I will send out a few messages and try to confirm this.

The rest sounds about right. As for El BAN, that is really, really weird. I wonder if he falls under the dealer category like the early CA cars?
