So, while I was at a local VW dealership this weekend to look at a couple used GTIs I found myself behind the wheel of a new one, just to prove to myself that I really did not need it. Well, I was wrong and I did.
Haha, wow. I cant imagine spending 30% more than I planned on. Nice

As Dr Wot put it, there is a German feel (materials, styling, ergonomics, and driving feel) you get in the GTI that the competition just does not have
I didnt know that. I thought the GTI was no different than say a Mazda 3. Infact I was under the impression that Mazda 3 had the better interior (from what i read. never sat in either one)
That's a really nice choice. He is totally correct on the feel. VW interiors just feel great. The materials and tolerances are excellent.
My wife loves her MK IV GTI. It really is amazing how useful a GTI is. I remember leaving Lowes with a gas grill, a kitchen sink, two boxes of tile and some other stuff and everything fit.
Of your choices, I would have been severely tempted by the GLI though.
