My wife has a 2012 GTI with the 6-speed DSG (automatic) transmission. When I drive her car it definitely feels like a much lighter vehicle compared to the X1 and more responsive even when driving in the non-sport mode. Handling is very good and the rear seats probably have more leg room than the X1.
The big negative of the GTI is the front wheel drive as it's too easy to lose grip when you get on the power - especially in the rain.
