Sirus and Apple CarPlay questions on X3
Hi. Looking to lease an X3 and have these two questions b/c the information that I have seems odd to me:
- SiriusXM: Do all X3s have SiriusXM capability, and it just needs to be turned on? I'm aware that it can come with 1 year of Sirius included, but one model I looked at didn't have serious capability, and I was told to get that capability I would have to move up packages, adding $40/month to my lease. That seemed odd to me, that the car wasn't that I couldn't just get the lease and turn on Sirius, even on my own dime. Is that accurate?
- CarPlay: I read something that said BMW charges $80 annually to even "access" CarPlay. That seemed really odd and a complete gouge. It's just a connectivity, a free service. Other cars, Audi, etc there is no fee, it's just part of the connectivity in the car. Anybody know anything about this?

Also, I don't know for sure if Sirius/XM capability is in every X3, but I've never seen one without it.
