The base 2020 Civic Sedan DX manual has no AC. The LX and up has AC.
I drove the new 2019 GTI Autobahn for around 2000km and I wasn't a fan of the DSG due to the way it shifts. In manual mode, there is a bit of a delay when you use the paddle shifters. Auto mode just takes you to the highest gear when it can. I know it's blasphemy but I feel that the CVT in the Civic is much better as a daily driver.
On the GTI, there isn't much front grip so even with the LSD, traction control will intervene. I liked the digital display on the GTI and the Titan Black leather seats; they are super comfy compared to the 2018 Civic LX seats. The Fender audio system is sounds pretty good as well.
The OP's problem is that the GTI doesn't really have a direct competitor as the Sport Touring on the Civic HB doesn't have the Si's LSD and transmission. The Si trim only comes on the Sedan and Coupe and has shorter gear ratios as well.
