Hey I wanted to get on the list for the group buy but wanted to ask how the audio quality is when using CarPlay? I have the B&O system and don’t want to sacrifice sound quality.
Thanks!

Regarding the sound quality I haven't noticed much difference. However, I have the standred audio so I cant speak about B&O system.

You can still listen to music using the car's Bluetooth while using CarPlay, as long as you dont listen to turn directions or use Siri.

Send $273 to ShaaibShihon@gmail.com. Make sure it is a friends and family payment otherwise he will only get $259.

PM sbinshihon your Payment email, name, address etc.

Also, note there are some limitations. I think the biggest one for most folks is that camera does not pop up with PDC detects something. In order to view the camera, you have to exit out of CarPlay.

This is my biggest concern. I currently have an Avin retrofit in my M3 and it uses the aux port for audio. My solution is to switch audio from CarPlay to bluetooth but I have to change sources on my phone every time I get in.. that would defeat the purpose of having wireless though. Maybe sbinshihon can verify that's what he sees. Either way I look at it like it's either get in on this cheap price and try it out or pay almost 2k for a proper Evo retrofit.

If you don't care for its features (or lack thereof), you can always resell it in the classifieds & recoup most your initial outlay. Even people that have BMW OEM CarPlay systems have something to complain about! (1st world problems) So i.e., there's no perfect system (yet) YMMV.
