2007 VW GTI or 2004 Volvo S60R?

I love the GTI for it's handling, and the super sweet DSG. The biggest problem I have with it is the fact that it looks fast.
The S60R IS fast, and luxx. AWD, Leather, 300hp. It looks like an old man car, and it's a blast to drive. Not as much fun as the GTI, but many many more creature comforts, and AWD which would be nice in the New England weather.
Price isn't an issue, as the brand new VW (package 1, DSG) costs almost exactly what the 28000mi used Volvo does. They both come with warranties, and are being purchased from reputable dealers.
Which would you chose? Why?
