Default need help deciding(VW HELP)

I wanted to see what you guys thought was the best deal. I am having a hard time deciding. I love the gti but my wife has a 4 door Gsr. I thinks a 4 door turbo would be hot and no one would expect it to be fast. What do you guys think i should do. The first one is from carmax and the the last 3 are from a vw dealer. thanks for the input

get a vr6 gti. The 24v is awesome. I'd try to get one with the 6spd if possible. They move out on though....I wanted one too.

Thats an easy decision.....GTI VR6, my boy has one. Its pretty fast. The only problem is traction, but a suspension would take care of that problem.

boost the GSR, get some big wheels, and drop it a little. 4 dr GSRs look hot when done tastefully..
