I have it and really like it, but I think there might be a problem with install. Its suppose to pause whenever you turn off the stereo/car, but on mine the ipod stats at the beginning of the song that was currently playing when the stereo/radio was turned off. Mine was the first one my dealer had installed in an 07, so I have a good feeling they just didn't connect something correctly. I plan to take it in after the Dragon.

Other than that I love it. Sounds great and I haven't touched the ipod itself ever since I put it in the hidden glovebox.

I have the iPod interface with the Sat Nav, it works great with sound title displayed on screen and easy playlist selection.

I have it. Is it worth $500+. For me no. I don't have the Sat-Nav which probably gives increased functionality. Mine displays plenty of info but shows only two songs at a time. The IPod is in the glove box and charges. I have gotten a few error messages, but this is easily correctable by rebooting the IPod. It's certainly decent, but for someone who uses the IPod's playlists using the Aux Input would function almost as well.

I asked about whether it picked up where you left off after restarting the car on Mini2 forums and was told that it didn't. I think that may be the normal operation.
