It is also a small step to have all cars "registered" to some big brother in the sky that will then keep track of your speed.

I would tend to agree, however allowing us customers to update our own cars with OEM software updates would be ideal, in the same way I can download 29GB of iDrive map official updates to a USB stick, still offline install which gives me full control of what and where I got it from, not to mention that you can't just plug in any software and there will be no validations before installing.
iOS is over the air and I am sure it's perfectly safe to sandbox the installation.
But well, I won't change it by moaning. Sorry.
