Has anyone seen a 3DR GTI in the flesh?

You mean something like this?
Had to gloat, like I said, we all need therapy

In Melbourne so far what I've seen are 99% 5 door GTI, and 99% of Golf on the road have sunroof... including mine

And I swear that half the Golf's on the road down here (be it Mk5 or Mk6) are GTI's! Almost always 5 door and driven by old ladies. Hey I might be able to get myself a sugar mumma, wonder if the missus would allow it

Don't see too many 3drs, but that's a good thing as it means that if I do decide to go down the GTI route I will be somewhat unique.

I did see a 50ish yo lady gawk at my car at some traffic lights. She was driving a 5 door base Golf. She had probably never seen a 3 door version. Bit of a weird moment as well.

I think unique would mean you are the only one.
One thing to consider is the limited market you will have if you later choose to sell the 3 door privately. Not many people want 3 door cars.

Sure they do... but this isn't the thread for it. There are already 3 vs 5 door discussion threads....

That's not necessarily a bad thing. I've only had 2 door cars, and I have had great success with selling them fast. I've kept my previous cars in pristine condition, low kms, and always appears as a "standout" within the carsales network.
