Very cool. Great work. In general, I do like the new class of controllers like these (Audi MMI, BMW iDrive, and MB COMMAND). These keep you from reaching across the car to the dash, so that you can change the functions from more relaxed driver position. The thing that you really did well is the way you use the MODE buttons like on Audi's MMI. The MMI is freakin' awesome-- the absolute best of these controller types.

Honestly, the only people who complainn about iDrive are folks who do not own the cars. I have heard few owners actually complain about iDrive. To the contrary, owners and enthusiasts like iDrive.
