    Are hatchbacks becoming rare??

    I don't know whats going on but it just seems like there aren't many hatchbacks around now-a-days I can pretty much name almost everybody who has one here on this board. Lets see, Myself, Gynauob(sorry if I misspelled that), Bitesize, 88 accord hatchback, Hondaman 87, Honda Vtec, Vinny, Marks89hatch (or something like that) Ivanbi, 88accordturbo,NX Racer, Sorry if I missed any noobs or anybody else, but does anyone know if hatch backs were limited in production or not??

    I see them around once in a while. I see sedans the most. Then hatchbacks, then coupes. I just saw a hatchie for sale yesterday.

    And you should post more often I don't see you around much.

    I dont really see hatches but then again I don't particulary care for stock hatches so I don't look for them.

    I didn't at first but now I'm starting to like them. I was the same way with the 96-00 civic hatches. At first I hated them but now since my friend is selling his for $250 I am starting to like them quite a bit. If this actually does go through I'll be selling my reliable 4dr accord once I finish the repairing the body damage on this 97 hatch I'll be looking at.

    I mean in general. I've only seen about 3 here in town other than mine and the are all bone stock. Sedans I see a ton of and coupes but not too many hatches. Kind of seems like they were shorter in production.

    we should be able to look up production #s somewhere
    I loved my hatch, but having a trunk is nice too..
    The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard;

    Sold it in December. Not quite sure what the relevance is between selling the car and you wanting to buy parts though

    Well I wasn't sure if you sold it or not, just thought I remember reading a thread about you selling some parts for it. Do you have any spare parts laying around??

    I still have my hatch, well what's left of it anyway. It's still good as a parts car. And I love that pic of Vinny's Hatch, that chip out of the front bumper looks so familiar it eery.
