What a change from the Macan. Don't you miss how sporty and nimble the Macan was? Unless you plan on owning something sporty to take its place?

Can you elaborate on your issue with Bluetooth? I am able to listen to SiriusXM while my phone is connected via Bluetooth.

I will miss the sportiness of the Macan however there was not enough room for the wife, 3 grandkids and 2 Labs. The Macan IMO is the best small CUV bar none and it was extremely reliable. I put 68K miles on it in two years and it always brought a smile to my face. Obviously, the Atlas has nowhere near the performance but the infotainment is much better and the Fender audio system beats the Bose.

Worked just fine today. Not sure what was going on yesterday.

Picked up My Atlas 03/05/18

Picked up my VW SEL Atlas 2 days ago after trading in my 2012 Mercedes ML 350. This is a totally different car in a good way. I am getting better mileage on the Atlas and similar power. The ride is much smoother and handling seems to be better.

I put on 150 miles so far, I am very pleased.
