As a previous Golf R MK7 owner and 340i M-Sport owner I wouldn't buy either really (meaning 240i). The MK7 is soleless as mentioned, the MK8 is better with the new diff but the looks/interior is ehhh. The S3 is old architecture and unfortunately doesn't get the nice rear diff (yet). The 240i just doesn't quite have the looks in my opinion even though the B58 is a marvel. I would consider splurging for the upcoming RS3 and spend the extra $10k or so for that 5cyl, rear diff, awesome looks, and nicer interior. Not to mention it will leave all 3 of these cars well behind and a simple tune turns them into 10sec pocket rockets.
