GTI will obviously win the practicality contest but does have one significant shortfall (for me)- golf clubs won't fit without folding a seat and exposing them. I'm 5'8" and me sitting behind me in 128 is ok (doable for short-medium distance) which is more than I can say for many other (larger) 2+2s- G37, Genesis, A5, CTS, Camaro, Mustang, Accord, C-coupe- and I'm speaking more in the way of head room, but it has as nearly as much or more leg room than most of these as well. This is why I can't understand ppl saying the 1 is so damn small. Compared to mid-size sedans, yes sure its small, compared to most coupe competitors I think it does pretty well given its small footprint. But yes the GTI does offer a surprising amount of rear passenger space...
