To Hatch or Not to hatch That is the Question

Ok we have all had that time in our lives when we had to choose between a sporty 3 door and the 4 door sedan. My question is which serves you better in the long run?

I love both hatches and sedan. I lean towards wagons/sedans for the extra convenience.

I like hatches better. Im not a fan of big cars thats why im a bit upset with the way Honda has gone with the new models.
I want a new hatch!

It's really what feeds your tube man.... If your really gonna race your car.. Definetly go with the hatch.. if your still gonna be racing and wanna get props for havin a fast ride, sedan wouldnt be a bad start..

"Oh ****. that 4door just hit 12's dude" lol.. that'd be the **** right..

If you got a family, sedan is for you.. I personally dont mind both cars.. But as a first car to be purchased if you dont got a family, I'd say stick with the hatch. then for a second car get a 4door for the second project..

You'll be more happy with the hatch as you'll be yearning for speed every step of the way.

my 2cents:

But dont take my word for it.. Your the one buying the car for yourself..

and whats wrong with 4-doors? j/k. Hatches are sweet if your going for speed and looks. I really dont care a whole lot about looks and i like the expression on the guys face when they get beat by a 4 door civic. What motor do you want to build?

Its good having a coupe and 4 door option I think.
You can have a coupe while your young, and once you older and have kids you can still have a civic, just get the 4 door

Not to hatch. I prefer 2dr coupe always. I always hoped Honda would make another Si coupe.

I don't move as much as i used to but If I had the hatch i could stuff in the back easier. I like a hatch for those reasons but for passenger needs of course it is nice to have more doors and room/seats.

One of each wow what luxury!
