This, IMHO, iDrive has improved to the point where I don't use CarPlay. I ordered it as an option on my 2018 M4, but the new iDrive works well enough for me that I don't use the CarPlay option. As an aside, I was at my Dealer a couple of days ago and saw an M2 in the showroom with a sticker price north of $85k - totally ridiculous, BMW is continually decontenting their vehicles and pushing the prices up, option prices are simply stupid at present. It's usually the little things that drive customers from a brand - this is surely one of those. You can buy a Honda Fit for $19k with CarPlay included, I know because I am looking at the Fit for one of my children. My M4 came in just shy of $85k and I had to pay $300 for the CarPlay - it offers no conceivable benefit to me at all.
