I originally went to Donaldson's, which had such great customer service, but decided to shop around a little. We walked into the dealership and were greeted by a manager who instantly stated he knew nothing about Volkswagens and would find someone to help us, so we were off to a great start. We were then helped by Adam who was trying so hard to sell us this car, and literally told us, 'I don't care what I give you this car for, the dealership can lose money, it's the end of the month and I need this car to get my bonus.' We should have known by now just to leave. We wound up taking a car for a test drive in which Adam spoke about himself the entire time and how he doesn't even drive a VW and we began to lose interest. We got back to the dealership and he started to write down numbers and somehow came up with a monthly payment of close to $500 a month, which at Donaldson's I was given $353 a month for a more expensive car. We asked what the interest rate was and he said he didn't know and would have to go ask his manager, in which he came back still with no interest rate. We then asked again what the interest rate was and to increase the time to 72 months. Again, he came back stating it was a general interest rate and he wasn't sure what it was. At this point we said we were leaving to which he went back to his manager and finally got the interest rate, in which he was trying to hide, of 7.99%. This was my first time buying a car but he did not run my credit or anything and was just hoping I would agree to the payments and would end up paying $27,000 for a $19,000 car. After this we were absolutely done, thanked him for his time and started to leave. At this point he ran to his manager asking him for help because we were leaving and we were then followed out to our car by the manager telling us we could work something out. I then received multiple phones call from them (and still am over a month later) asking for me to come back, even after I already told them many times I am not interested in buying a car from them. Save yourself and stay far away from Atlantic, go to Donaldson's instead. More

At the end of the day I left with the car of choice and can only say the experience was very positive. I felt that Justin went out of his way to ensure that both my husband and I were comfortable with the process and offered several different scenarios for us to consider. I would not hesitate to recommend the dealership and especially Justin. Audrey S More

The car salesman Adam was a great help, Adam took the time to show me the different models and explain the difference between them then took me on a test drive so I can experience it for myself he also asked the right questions that tied into my everyday lifestyle when it came to the features of the car.

Bought a lease! Xavier was awesome, and so was his manager! My mom and I are hard people to deal with, but they helped us pick out a lease & gave us a great deal.

Worst Experience ever Dealership dented the car door and wouldn't cover the damage which was caused during service. They had no camera proof that it didn't happen and left Dealership dented the car door and wouldn't cover the damage which was caused during service. They had no camera proof that it didn't happen and left fingerprints all over the door. The service manager was the rudest person I have ever came across and tried to give me the runaround. The service technicians are obviously under trained and should not be working on 30 Thousand dollar cars. Even a tire change seems to be too difficult for them. I would trust my 15 year old cousin more with changing oil or a wheel than them. It's very sad that dealerships such as this one are so bad at what they do. You had one job. More

Great service from Justin Himes Just bought a VW EOS yesterday and had such a pleasant experience with my sales rep that I just had to share. If you need a VW, ask for Justin Himes Just bought a VW EOS yesterday and had such a pleasant experience with my sales rep that I just had to share. If you need a VW, ask for Justin Himes at Atlantic VW. He is efficient, smart, knowledgeable, friendly and most of all he gave me a great deal, a far better deal in fact than the competitors. Highly recommend this dealership and Justin Himes. More
