Wouldn't it be great if you could control your car with your iPhone? If you disregard how stupedly dangerous it is, then the answer is absolutly yes. Unfortunately for us, we'll just have to settle for this surprisingly well-made video displaying how such an app might work. Video after the break. <!--break-->

There was a James Bond movie where Bond could drive his BMW with his Nokia, so it's not that farfetched. Heck, I can drive MY BMW with my Nokia phone.
