Anyone tried out this wireless CarPlay dongle yet?
Ordered one today and hopefully it works as good as some of the reviews it has received.

I don’t hook up CarPlay enough to warrant that, will just stick with the cable for now

And kind of crap we won't get it. Theoretically the current UConnect system has the hardware in place to support wireless android auto/carplay.

Maybe there will be a firmware update. Kind of crazy if a 2020 doesn't get it if the hardware can support it.

Canceled my order.Company says they are sold out and the incoming shipment is in quarantine in Shanghai due to the coronavirus outbreak

To my knowledge, the only manufacturer that currently has wireless carplay deployed is BMW.

BMW is usually early to the new features. I thought it was crazy in 2011 when my M3 could display text messages and emails on the screen.

Off topic, but is that a frozen E92? Love the S65s... wish I still had my E90 M3!

I wish. I had it plastidipped frozen blue. It's back to factory white now. It's an e93. I have a thing for convertibles which is why I bought the Gladiator to go with the M. I had a E46 M3 before the E93. I still miss that car.

Edit: I also had it done in charcoal and teal once as well. Finally just went back to stock.

@busstees Super fun cars! I certainly will get another. Mine was a 2011.75 E90 M3 6MT slicktop stripper car with no options. Miss it every day (still my desktop actually)
