GTI or Mazda2?
Should I lightly modify the GTI and use it as a daily while further modifying the Mazda2 as an AutoX & Circuit track car (backup daily)? I would add Bilstein coilovers, exhaust, and stickier tires to the Mazda. Or should I daily the Mazda2 and go 280-300HP Stage 2 down-pipe exhaust intake brakes suspension with the GTI as an AutoX & Circuit track car (backup daily)? Or in other words, which would you rather watch as a Youtube build? haha.

I would very much prefer to drive the GTI but I would prefer to watch a Mazda2 build as it would be unique.

What kinda MPG do you get with the Mazda? If I had a long commute I might keep that as my daily but then again the GTI is a nice place to be. If you are manual trans GTI the clutch will need upgrading for stage 2 so keep that in mind. The GTI in stock form is a great daily as far as comfort and sport.
I also would prefer to watch a Mazda 2 build as GTI builds are more common. |

There was a Mazda 2 really pushing it and three-wheeling it on almost every turn at Sebring a few months back when I was there, so Mazda 2 gets my vote.

While the VW can track and does alright doing it - they're not track cars. Too expensive to maintain in that environment and I don't think they're built to do it over the long term.
Best to stick with the Mazda and enjoy the VW as a great DD you can have fun with.
