I take personal issue with my car being referred to as a "hatchback." A "hatchback" applies to CRXs and Civics with vertically positioned rear point of ingress/egress. A "hatchback" is synonymous with 1000 pound POS import.
Toyota calls my model a "liftback" because the rear cargo port is at a 45 degree angle. It is only used as a hatch for getting people in and out of the car when two people are going to be... laying in back with the seats down (and using the so-perfectly placed rear window to look at the heavens afterward). And perhaps once I have added a few horse under the hood, I might demand my car be referred to as domestics were a time ago, that is a "fastback." -------------------- ![]() |

lol, i had the exact same prob Andason, thank god i tried the hatch before trying to break in
![]() anyways, i think the main difference is that only a coupe can pull off an aluminum wing(if wanted) and a hatch can't. the flat back on a coupe i think would also look just a tad bit stranger than a hatch w/o a spoiler. -------------------- ![]() |
