Hatchbacks are the best of all worlds, they look sporty like a coupe, but they hold far more stuff than a typical sedan trunk. Although it does seem like people in this country are coming around to the idea of small hatchbacks like they have in Europe because of escalating gas prices.

I've considered the Fit a mini-minivan...
I used to hate hatchbacks and imports until bought a used Integra almost 15yrs ago... since then I prefer hatchbacks, and Honda's...
Any car I've had since if it wasn't a hatch I hated it... lolol... I guess once you own one, you see the versatility of a hatch, and reliability of a Honda...
... must be something with americans...
I saw an episodde of the Soprano's yearssss ago, the one where Edie Falco(sp?) and the her friend went to Paris (I believe), they're at a cafe and almost every car on the street is a hatchback.... huge difference in Europe.
