Get the prefacelift gsi, you get the electric sunroof lol. As for the loud drive, yes they're pretty noisy and things tend to rattle a little (drivers window must be either up or down, not inbetween lol). Having said that, its a really comfortable car to drive imo. Fair bit of power, most people think they look sexy, a simple exhaust system can make them sound great and they stick to the road like glue. You can thrash a dc2/4 around a small roundabout at a million miles an hour and it will still stick.
