I can change songs from my steering wheel and I own a 2008 Volkswagen Gol which is the third world country version of the golf 2 more or less
You can keep your shitty touch screen I’d rather just have the physical buttons and Bluetooth
Ive never had any issues with it (other than the microphone not working anymore but the stereo itself is a refurb)
Sure you can change songs, but with Android Auto I can have it play a different album or playlist with voice commands. I can fast forward through ads in a podcast either by tapping the skip button or talking to it.
Honestly the bigger thing for me is the superior GPS without a separate unit though.
Honestly I just got a phone holder and use my phone independently of the car for all that. And voice commands never quite worked right in my experoence, but Spanish is the regional language where I live so maybe that has something to do with it.
I do see the appeal of having the screen integrated (when it’s actually integrated and not just a tablet hanging off the dash like someone Jerry rigged it there) but I feel rather heavily that at no point you should use a tactile interface in a car and that all and any functions that you can use in your car while moving should have physical buttons so you can use them without thinking
