Theres actually quite a few subtle stying differences between the Type-S and the 5-Door. Some of them I didn't realise myself until seeing mine parked next to the 5-door model.

Of course the 3-door looks more 'sporty' and the back windows are a different shape. Also the rear of the Type-S looks marginally more aggresive due to having larger 'triangles' on the exhaust (positioned differently too) and subtle differences with the reflector plates etc.

From a practical perspective the 5-door is better of course, and has the full magic-seat feature which (I believe) the 3-door lacks. Having said that, I have taken quite a few people in the back of the Type-S and getting in and out is a doddle due to the acres of space available to climb in (certainly compared to my old Cougar anyway).
