For me, and I suspect many others, the driving enjoyment comes from driving a well engineered car with well tuned suspension with good ride/handling balance, well-weighted steering with good feel and feedback, a slick gearchange and a responsive engine.
Electronic gadgets take a away driver enjoyment for me and I can happily survive without all the rubbish put in modern cars which cause unnecessary distraction and make the driving experience feel very remote and distanced. If people like that sort of thing, fine, but I definitely prefer simple.
Also, if the controls and the touchscreen were as brilliant as you say they are, you would not have needed to connect remotely to set the heated seats or whatever as a well-engineered design would be logical and easy to use. Dare I say it, a simple button with perhaps a rotary dial to control temperature mounted somewhere clearly visible and clearly marked would be more intuitive and also safer and less distracting for the driver?
