if bmw goes to ios it will pretty be the last straw for me. i've been looking for a reason to get a porsche anyway.

Scroll down. You will see who's already on board, and who is "committed".

Guys there is no reason to freak out. Relax. CarPlay uses a H264 stream from the iOS device. It's not that iOS is installed on our head units lol. BMW will most likely still have it's idrive software and have carplay as an option for iOS users. As an iOS user, I'd like to see it because I drive integration with the devices suck. The iOS GUI for even playing music is far more efficient than navigating through idrive. Plus most of the time Google/Apple Maps are more up to date than the onboard navi and easier to use. I usually use the onboard navi just when I want to see the directions on the HUD which is pretty cool and useful.

CarPlay will be ported into BMW in the coming 1 or 2 years as stated in Apple's website.
I hope there could be a retrofit for recent owners that bought their bimmers :\ |

Macrumors had an article the other day stating that Pioneer was working on aftermarket options.
