It won't. BMW has already said that it's not interested in supporting it.

Not a dealbreaker for me. The standard iPhone integration works very well.
Hands-free phone calls and iMessage dictation through Siri are all I really need.
And I'd rather not be distracted by icons on the in-dash touchscreen.

Oddly, "BMW Group" is still listed among the technology partners on Apple's CarPlay page:
http://www.apple.com/ios/carplay/

Care to share any links with us with any indication that BMW said "no" to CarPlay?

It was talked about at factory training about two months ago when I went to woodcliff lake.

Anyone having the album cover art not showing up on iOS, or idrive using offline mode?

So it is very buggy, my current issues are:

1. When playing a track from an album or playlist you CANNOT do a simple click to view the album or playlist to see the tracks as you can on Spotify (on iphone or laptop) or as you can via the normal media services on iDrive.

2. The integration sometimes gets confused and either shows the wrong or incorrect album covers.

3. It's still a pain having to connect via cable and start the Spotify app manually.

Same problem

I have the same problem, when I load Spotify it will only show the first song I started with. When I change song it doesnt show that song, sometimes delayed changing, i hope they fix soon...Do you have similar problems?
