It's ok to have Internet connection to a car, but not to the anything that involves handling, like ECU.
I had Android touch screen double din installed on my old 1990s Honda Prelude, which I used for parking camera, listening to music, Waze navigation and connecting to the phone while driving for hands free talking while driving. But it was not connected to other car systems.
So you had control over the hardware is what you are saying? That's different.

No, of course I don't have full control over some Chinese Android device. But it's not connected to anything that can impact handling of the car. Only to the power source, speakers, parking camera (which that car didn't have by default), mic, GPS antenna.

So its like having a phone with you. I see what you are saying.

Yes, but with bigger screen (better for Waze) and connected to the audio system of a car (so that when there is police or speed cameras in front, music gets quieter and nice womans voice warns me :) ). And without built-in SIM card and Internet, need to connect phone via Wi-Fi hotspot for that.
