A ******* men brother. This seems to get overlooked on the Internet a lot. Being able to drive the wheels off I car and still not hit "go to jail" speeds is a lot of fun if the car is cheap enough.
On the ms3/gti/Sti thing, you're spot on on every point except that ******* plaid interior in the gti being pleasing to the eye.
I've owned a well modded Sti, driven a golf r often, and if I had to pick between the three for a DD, I'd probably come home with a used ms3. It's a great "middle ground" car. Fast enough, handles well enough and is practical enough. The value isn't there on the golf r, and I'd mod the Sti past "comfortable daily driver".
