Totally agree. It makes no sense. It's just a random monitor protruding from the console.
That's supposed to be factory? Looks like someone slapped an aftermarket screen smack dab in the middle of the dash.
Only a premium thing?
It's great that Apple has worked with auto makers to integrate this into their vehicles. But it seems like it is only available for luxury cars. What about other, less expensive cars? Maybe Apple only sees this as a premium service.

Lost
Can't wait to get lost in my new $400k Ferrari while using apple maps. Until Apple admits their maps app sucks and goes back to Google, than they will just be seen as arrogant. And with no offline mode for apple maps, it's useless if you lost service.

50% of the time, his eyes were looking at the screen, and not out the windshield. It's gonna be awesome driving when everyone has these!
That C Class Merc has a very hideous center console. Can't get over those three air vents.
Egads.

From the article: "Apple has promised new CarPlay-compatible vehicles from a number of manufacturers in 2014, including Ferrari, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, and Volvo, with a dozen other manufacturers signed on as partners with unspecified launch timeframes."
