No ConnectedDrive and AppleCar in some countries

I was about to make an order when my dealer casually let me know that BMW ConnectedDrive and thus Apple CarPlay are not supported in my country.

Moreover they cannot add options 6AE and 6AK, so I cannot even buy it, later when it becomes available. Some hardware will be missing

This is such a bummer

Bosnia.

Local dealer is now claiming that once Bosnia is included in ConnectedDrive I'll be able to purchase it. But I'm a bit suspicious they are only trying to sell a car.

Same in Azerbaijan. Dealer told me that they are not expecting CD in 2-3 year.

In the end, I ordered the car with 6CP option (Apple CarPlay prep). At least this way, I'll have the necessary hardware 😀
