i think the rear windshield adds a lot of weight. which is why coupes are the lightest trim. i dunno about that lotus hatch. kinda too flashy for me. i'd get a cf hatch, plus change the rear window to plexiglass to get the most out of it. gonna be pricey though.

Thank you, the whole hatch including the glass makes up the difference between the coupes. The glass is bigger than the coupe. This is what I mean.
