Ehhh I dunno. I just don't like the look of it.
Partly, I don't like my eyes being pulled *that* far from the road. I shouldn't have to look down to adjust the radio.
The iDrive/CIC/NBT look I just appreciate more. And pretty much all of the idrive imitation units sound like garbage due to low quality audio DACs, and especially due to feeding audio through the aux-in, which in a BMW is particularly low quality. Streaming bluetooth, which is known to be very lossy, has better audio quality than the aux-in jack.
And yet, that's the only way the android i-drive-lookalike systems are designed to get audio to the speakers.
At this point, I'm just going for a full NBT Evo install.
