Hatcback? Eww!

When I think hatchback, I think the civic. Woo wee! don't get me started on civic-style hatchbacks. To me they look like a miniature touring (sports wagon) with the end chopped off--and when I think touring, I think five doors, I think soccer mom.

Europe has a gross fascination with hatches. Touring-style hatches just never appealed to me. Actually, for the longest time I really hated Civics, because all the ones I saw were ugly hatches (and I thought ALL Civics must be hatches). Lo and behold, I saw some nice looking coupes and saloons (sedan), and was shown the error of my Civic hating ways.

For some reason, when I think of hatchbacks, I don't think of the Supra, or the 3 series compact, or the Integra, or the Eclipse. But these are technically hatches.
