Hatches are nice, but so are coupes. It really just depends on personal preference.

- Sat Dec 10, 2011 3:34 am #284876 i just recently traded my hatch for a coupe. i liked the hatch a little bit better. theres actually not that much of a weight difference. only a couple hundred pounds but if youre going to be racing that will make a huge difference. the hatch looks sexier and i liked the open space. dont get me wrong i love my coupe but i loved the hatch just a little bit more.

IMO
The front end of both cars are pretty much the same
Unfortunately most common damage takes place in the rear
Whether its dents rust whatever
Hatch parts in general are harder to find
As far as I have seen hatches are more infamous then coupes
They are lighter as well

I own both a hatch and a coupe
I vote hatch

- Tue Dec 13, 2011 9:55 am #285188 I've had both and am currently running a coupe but so miss having a hatch so will try and find one in the summer, best thing to do is collect the set and have one of each coupe, hatch, ferio, sol then you don't have to decide.
