Since I am eagerly waiting for my Pure to be delivered I thought I'd like to share some of my reasons for choosing Pure and hear other forum members thoughts.
I have to start by saying that the 5dr was always the only option I ever considered. Practicality, tiny bit more space, and I like the looks too. (+ got two kids...)
1. Prize: that's an obvious one. I could have possibly been able to get the Dynamic or Prestige but really wasn't willing to spend the extra!
2. Interior styling: This was the big issue for me since I will be looking at the car (hopefully) mostly from the inside. I am not a fan of the Dynamic interior. It's just too "Recaro-sporty" for my taste, and didn't like the color options either. Prestige then? well, i am not a very prestigious kind of guy and certainly don't want any wood panels. Leather in Prestige is great but got a leather upgrade for my Pure.
3. Exterior styling: I like some of the features in all three models but since I specced the fog lights and xenons there's not so much difference in the front. I like the silver front grille in prestige though but one in Pure is just fine. Number or shape of tailpipes was never an issue for me.
4. Extras: I could really get all I wanted to my Pure. I was pondering the magnaride for a bit but in the end will probably not miss it and surely was not willing to pay the extra for that.
I made my decision in february-march based on the pics that were available back then but have to say that I am happy and would choose more or less the same today!
