My sons 18 Civic has it....I’m sold. Want.it.now, especially once google maps is integrated
What do you mean by "once google maps in integrated"? Isn't google maps inherently integrated with Android Auto?
Oh, are you talking about Carplay?

CarPlay
isn't the flashing of the new software only done by the dealer? you might be able to upgrade the part then would still have to go to the dealer for the software firmware update.
I thought i read that every time you go in for service part of their process is to make sure the software is up to date.
If you are referring to MZD Connect, officially it should be done by the dealer but there are instructions online allowing owners to do it themselves.
nice, then a full service do it yourself is an option.
though i would rather have them take apart my dash and center console if thats whats required, plus i'll get a free car wash out of it.

Good to hear of a fixed date. No $$$ mentioned for current owners who want it added.
Oz land only has a timeframe of later this year.
In Europe they mentioned a flat fee of 300 euros for 2018 models and 260 plus labor for other models. Pricing sounds odd to me but could be close to $500 for older models.
