Because 2 doors and a tailgate works just fine for most people, and the hatches get better gas mileage because they're lighter and have a smaller engine in some cases.

Through my insurance company, there is no difference in insurance rates for either model. The most expensive non-electrical part on either one is $30, so there's no advantage there. It all comes down to personal preference.

Personally, I like my hatch more than I would a fodo, unless it had previously been owned by WestCoastStyle. Then, maybe I wouldn't mind all the extra doors and weight.

If they get pissed off, tell them to get their own car.

If you think Civic back seats are bad, you should see the 2+2's in my RX-7.

RX-7 2+2 clearance is about four inches with the front seats in "normal" positions.
