I am lucky enough to have had all 3 of these cars. I traded my mk6 DSG for my BRZ a couple of weeks ago. I took a test drive and liked the BRZ, they offered me a good deal so I impulsively bought the BRZ.
There were a few of things that drove me crazy about the GTI. I hated how the inside tire would spin if I was on the gas and turning. It could be a curve or maybe passing a car but the tire would spin and make so much noise that it made you appear reckless. Also I could drive down the road turning the steering wheel back and forth from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock and zero reaction from the car. Very vague steering. I also didnt like that the power was not predictable.Sometimes the power would come, sometimes it wouldnt and sometime Id get more than expected. Besides that it is a great car, super practical and fast (especially tuned). Funny when I bought the GTI I stopped attending track days. By the way they dont cost $35k, It was $26k just like my BRZ.
My E30 M3 was a 1988, thats 25yrs old. It is a wonderful car with a great racing pedigree. Its actually very practical. Ive had 3 E30's and I think they are one of the best cars ever made. Reliable, practical, excellent ergonomics and lots of potential.
Guys dont put down any of the cars in this comparison without first hand experience.
