    The presence of Apple CarPlay was a factor in choosing my latest car.

      I was going to buy a car with either CarPlay, or with a standard Double-DIN radio so I could easily upgrade it.

      I ended up with the best of both worlds. The factory radio has CarPlay and adequate user-upgradable factory maps and has a double-DIN form factory. Aftermarket Facias are available to accommodate a standard 7” screen upto a 10” screen.

        What car did you end up with?

          I traded my bush-pig Grand Vitara and my shitbox TK Barina and bought a new Suzuki Jimny.

          I find that it has the economy of the Daewoo and the off-road ability of the lifted Grand Vitara. It has very spartan driver assistance, enough to help but not enough to get in the way.
