Hatch Envy

does anybody else get hatch envy? in particular i'm referring to the 5th gen hatch. I love the body shape. don't get me wrong i love my coupe, but to have both would be nice. if i could get one for really cheap, even a cx, i think I would buy it as a project car.

Hatchbacks look awesome when they are done up. Just look at Fusions, Daquel, Jooksingkid (because of the VSM paint), HappyB16, and 94EG6HB (because it's JDM modified).

Thanks for the approval....



I had hatch envy when I worked in Asia...

Had a "real" Milano Red 94 EG6 SIR as my daily driver...

Then when I came back my G/F showed up one day with a Milano Red 94 EH2 CX...

You know how the story goes...

Look out for the JDM GSR swap coming soon....

You're not the only one.
I love the 6th Gen Ek hatch.
Even in its stock form I love it. I think I'm in love with the CTR mainly.

I will admit the 6th gen hatch has grown on me as well...

I'm just totally feeling an EL front swap for that ride...

IMO it looks sweet...

James, it's weird that you've brought up this topic. For the last week or two I've been daydreaming of switching over to a hatch.

I've caught hatch fever again... more specifically, the JDM variant. I have a feeling that in another year you may see me driving a 6th gen (99-00) or 5th gen (only if I can find one in as incredible shape as my coupe) hatchback. I've already begun searching for used hatches and comparing prices.

The bug has got me and its grasp won't let go!

I like that one too.

I've always liked hatches. Ever since the 4th gen. Then the 5th gen came out and my first thought was, it's too bubbly. Not too long after, I started to grow on that. Same goes with all the gens after the 5th.

Mmm... hatchback...
I love the 6G hatchback, its my favorite unless you count the CRX as a hatchback in which I'm obsessed with the JDM SiR( I want to hump that car! )

I want a 6G hatch too, but I have a problem of not having a co-signer, so that plans gonna have to wait until sometime next year.
1st Plan: ZC the CRX

Hey Buff: Did you sell your SiR?
