The Z is an absolutely fine daily driver, especially as I see you live in Dallas where the weather is fairly consistent. The road noise, engine noise, seating position, suspension, etc all varies by personal preference. It's a raw sports car, not meant to be luxurious or anything of that sort. On the other hand the car lacks practicality with it being a 2 seater and limited trunk space. If none of this bothers you then by all means it is a fantastic car.

I've actually driven the Golf R and actually took a liking to it. A bit underpowered but still definitely a nice quick car putting power down to all 4 wheels. The car is considered more luxurious and a more of a comfortable car with lots of space and practicality, especially with the 4 door version. That engine is known to be mod friendly as well.
The Z is more of a full on sports car/drivers car. The Golf R is more of a comfortable 5 passenger vehicle with a sporty side. The Z being a daily driver/only car may pose issues because of its size and space, if that's not the case I would take it 10/10 times over the Golf R. You have to drive both to get a better understanding.
