I have installed one of these units and its be a bumpy ride. Few of the issues that have been reported are:

1. Bad Audio (can be fixed with Root and Viper4Audio)
2. Laggy and slow (apparently the new Android 7 and 2gb RAM are better)
3. GPS issues, you'll have to play around till you get the perfect spot
4. Boot time from cold start is around 30sec which might be an issue for you
5. My media buttons (steering wheel) don't always work and I have to play around with it till they start working (they seem to be tied together with the stock music player)
6. The stock music player (BMW themed) can't handle huge libraries 1,500+ songs

From the install, you have to cut a hole into your dash and eventually you will get squeaking from the unit as its not the most stable construction (imagine NE roads)
