Me, too...

On-topic:

I sold my 2008 VW Rabbit to buy the FR-S. I originally wanted the GTI, but decided to be conservative and get the Rabbit instead. I didn't make that mistake again. I'm sure in a few years i'll have to get something with more room, but that's what STI wagons are for, right?

I concur with all of the comments about the VW interior being higher quality overall. In fact, you'll find lots of little things lacking on the FR-S, like no hood struts, no 12V power port in the trunk, donut spare, and an unusable analog speedometer .

What it lacks in features, it makes up for in driving experience. Also, you're keeping the VW in the family, so you won't miss out on any of the conveniences like having seating for 5.
