After just picking up my car and putting a few miles in it i am prepared to say that the 3DR is significantly more rigid than its 5dr brother. That said the 5dr is still very torsionally stiff anyway. Maybe the 3dr is a better proposition if you where going to lower it as it would cope with the extra stresses better.
I will have photos of my new pride and joy this week. I was planning to do it this weekend but this Victorian heat s to much to stand and take photos in.

If it's just you and the gf or wife then the 2 door is a super option. If however (like me) you'll have kids in the back regularly not having the extra 2 doors will probably drive you half nuts, I know it would me.2007 Tornado Red DSG GTI

You get $1500 change.
German built.
No Euro style number plate mount on the snout.
And people telling you the 3dr R32 looks more in proportion, when in reality they're the same shell.

Another thing to think about is the 'B' Pillar is back about another 10-20cm or so. If you like to cruise around with the window down and doing the old 'GT Gutter Grip' and you're a big unit (6 foot or taller) then this is a big advantage as I have my seat all the way back.

Hello all, newbie here! I have ordered a 3dr GTI for my other half (due in May/June - xenons, DSG, etc), and I'm curious about the missing Euro no. plate mount?!?Originally posted by minigolf
No Euro style number plate mount on the snout.
What's that all about then? I'm probably going to order Euro plates for it, but...

You'll still be able to fit the Euro plate without the mount. It sounds cary, but it's not really, you just simply screw into the black snout.
Having said that, I do recall that some 3drs have been delivered with the mounts in place. It seems to be a luck of the draw thing maybe???
Because we don't have Euro plates in the ACT, it looks daft having a small number plate on a big black mount, fortunately our 3dr didn't have this problem.
