I'd love to hear how it compares to your Prius... perhaps you can draw up a list of pros and cons :D

lol ok I'll give it a bash

Pro's

Faster
Looks better
More desirable (I would say sexy!)
Handling
Nicer interior
Lights both adaptive cornering and the slow speed sideways ones incredible
Interior quality of materials
More gadgets/equipment
Monthly contribution (rental 35% lower)
Shorter so easier to park
Back to more engaging to drive
Excites me look forward to driving it later
Sounds better
Youngsters at work think I'm cool (not sure where this sits here or below)
Wife's happy to drive it

Cons

Mpg
High benefit in kind tax (company car)
Lower so harder for an old f@rt to get in/out
Bit worried some no@b will 'key' it
Not auto so no free left hand for text'ing surfing and emailing (joke)
Shorter wheelbase so seems pitchy fore & aft over bumps
Not keyless entry (available option I know)
No sat nav (available option I know)
No rear camera (available option I know)
No 20gig music hard drive (dunno if optional)
No silent slow speed mode (re on battery)
Wife's happy to drive it

congrats!

looks very good. enjoy it in good health.

hmmm...the 2 door in the darker colors (this and red) is making me re-think about changing my mind about getting a 4 door oryx white gti...

diggin' the garage too. :)

No 4 door white is hands down best option!!

The White Golf Mk6 GT is a Sassy looking motor, the Mk7 looks best in the Limestone grey or the Dark Blue , I allways thought the lighter shade of blue reminds me of all those Focus's on mobility that flooded my area , but the Red GTi is best left for , well I wouldn't have red unless it was a really DEEP Red. Blue is Cool.
