The definitive word I got is that this feature is available to be retrofitted to all CDN and US cars built in the timeframe of July/August that didn't come factory enabled. |

Do we have one confirmed Apple CarPlay that was enabled after the fact in CA or US? EDIT: CommitConfirm (UK) posted that he purchased using iDrive. |

There are US members here as well that have done it and others all around Europe. So instead of questioning me, maybe send BMW NA a note about how they don't even know what they're selling. |

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? |

No worries...BMW has been a shitshow when it comes to this, I'm glad we have the forums.
FYI, heard back from two guys, both had upgrade done at dealer. They are not sure what they did, both weren't there. EDIT: should also add that, when they bought the car, they were told they'd need to return to dealer for upgrade, FWIW. I wonder if El BAN could get his upgrade done in Canada. |

Apparently, CarPlay is now listed in the ConnectedDrive Store for USA. I bought CarPlay for $300 when I ordered my MY '17, so it came with it from the factory. The ConnectedDrive Store says I am "subscribed" to CarPlay for another 19 years.
Can anyone whose car did not come with CarPlay from the factory confirm if it's available for upgrade through the ConnectedDrive Store? Is the official retrofit now available? |

I did not buy it for my car. August 2016 build and not available in connected drive store. I still don't get what the big deal with car play is. I have it in my other car and it sucks even with a touch screen. I wouldn't even pay a dollar for it. Free is all its worth to me and I'm an IPhone person.

I have 2017 and my car doesn't have car play. I logged in online and I was able to subscribe for 20 years.
I am yet to get in my car and see if the carplay is available -- will probably do it tomorrow. |

Where are you located at? I just signed in online and don't see any options to add it.

Yes, looks like it is available at https://connecteddrive.bmwusa.com but wasn't back in February, see post #106
I purchased Apple CarPlay with the vehicle from the factory, 8/16 build. |
