I'm considering purchasing a 2012 Lacrosse Premium 2 with Navigation. The last eight digits of the VIN are CF181031. I sat in the car yesterday for over an hour trying to figure out if I can stream Pandora etc from my iPhone 6 Plus. Tried out 5 different cars on the lot (not Buicks) and had the streaming working in under 5 minutes on all of them.

I can sync the phone just fine, and it works for calls. But streaming doesn't seem to work no matter what I — or the dealer — try.

Is bluetooth streaming not possible with this car, or am I missing something?
 
Pandora is not mentioned in the manuals covering the Intellilink system prior to 2013.
 
In researching a "new" car for myself, it appears that audio streaming first became available in 2013. You're really screwed if you're looking at Cadillac CTSs. It looks like 2014 is the first year bluetooth streaming was available.

Your car has the UPF option with is bluetooth phone. No streaming.
