Not sure why you'd need to "Send directions" when the car does that itself?
Because on Google Maps its fun and easy to plot different routes that most nav systems (incl bmw’s) won’t let you do or would take far too long to do. For example, like I did today through some back roads and canyons not far from where I live. Its super quick to do this on Google Maps so it would be cool to send not just the destination to the car but also your carefully plotted route.
