I would love to see a Supra-esk targa top on a FRS/BRZ.

Hatch looks great, love the added functionality, I'd prefer the hatch over the production coupe. If these threads are ever monitored for market research by Toybaru, please consider a 2 door hatch.

Nope hatch sucks, because it adds weight. I know people want to put people in the back seats, that is what a WRX is for. Just wait for the next version of the WRX. It will be something wonderful!

Not only to put ppl... w hatch, you can put more stuff. As for a weight, Current STI hatch weight 3373 lbs vs STI sedan weight 3384 lbs. Sedan weight 11 lbs more, so stating hatch = weight more doesn't hold true anymore in modern days

Would the extra weight make that much of a difference to you?

on the trunk part but a 2 dr trunk and a 3 dr hatch would be a more realistic comparison.
