Granted it does have more glass on the side, but the general shape is similar.

Yeah the shape is fine. Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent chop, shape, and design of the FR-S into a hatchback. I just think hatchbacks like that are ugly (not to be confused with having the trunk function like a hatch back - I love that).

But the glass is what I was saying. Just extending the body to make it the shape of a hatch back makes it look misfitting. The glass should be extended too, especially for function (rear visibility), much like the images you sent me.
