I picked up my green SE two days ago. When it had 40 miles on it, my sister backed a car into it, causing $1300 damage to the front bumper. GRRRR....gotta get it fixed.
I really like this car; it's lively, the stick shift--last of a dying breed--is wonderful, the seats are comfy, and surprisingly (because I didn't listen to it during the test drive) the entertainment system is superior to any other OEM system I have ever had, and at 68 years of age, I've had a lot of them. And the handling is superior--the car does not break traction even in a sharp turn on wet pavement.
Android Auto, however, sucks, which isn't really VW's fault. And because the car doesn't have built-in nav and relies on Google maps for nav, if I ever take it to the boonies, I'll take my Garmin, which doesn't need cell towers to operate.
Speaking of boonies, I don't see any AT or semi-AT tires for this vehicle on Tirerack--which is strange because this vehicle is supposed to be competition for the Outback, no? Last time I took a vehicle with OEM street tires to the Gila National Forest in New Mexico , a cactus put a needle clean through the sidewall. Gotta figure that one out.
