Why cant this be backwards compatible, i so want car play in my A4 :(

I think the biggest reason would be whether you have a touchscreen or not, not sure if carplay would would with the MMI controls.

My new A3 arrives in Jan and while I'm hopeful, I doubt carplay will ever come to that screen. However, I'll be using it on my iPad mini instead with the help of Adam B3ll!
