Hatchback?

Has anybody speculated on whether this will be a hatchback or not?

If it is not, the letterbox boot opening of the concept II looks hardly large enough to fit a set of golf clubs?

Might wana search it, been speculated a couple times.

Also dont think many people would be using this car to hold much more than a second passenger.

I could see it maybe. The mazda6 looks good in hatch trim, though I prefer my sedan for every reason except the lack of a back wiper (grr).

I wouldn't mind one, but its not a dealbreaker by any means. Give it a hatch and it'll go down as one of the greatest DD cars akin to the 300ZX. Give it the coupe styling and it'll go down as one of the best looking 2+2s ever, assuming they don't make it a bench in back (please don't!!!)

You aren't a fan of TopGear, are you?

But I would still LOVE a hatch!

Hatches have 'performance' uses too.



Getting tires through a tiny trunk may be a royal pain in the ass.

Dumb question, but what car is that? I can't tell from the angle, but it is damn sexy. I've never seen an AE86 in person, so I wouldn't know if it was or wasn't one.

EDIT: Nevermind. I used Google. Me want. That'd make a bitchin DD if I could get my hands on one.

Specially changing rear suspensions. Coupes are so pain to replace em... I learned that from my Imp.

Old school Toyota. Soooo pretty.

Does that make me officially old? That I think Toyotas looked better in the late 80s early 90s than they do now?

Damn. I really don't see a lot of nice cars like that. Its all ricers and diesel trucks around these parts. And the automatic Corvettes that are only driven to car shows. ugh. I'd love to have one of those.
