I was expectng all out hatred of the hatch to be honest, I'm suprised you guys like it. I like it and would definitely drive it, but there's no denying it looks pretty weird while being awesome. As an avid bmxer, I basically need a hatch(I love them regardless and would take a hatch over a sedan all day unless offered a hawkeye Sti) if I want to keep the roof/trunk racks off the car or my wheels on the bike so it'll fit in the back. I'm looking at the veloster turbo now too since I do get terrible snow here, even though it's been 50+ degrees in december here somehow... and I want to be able to easily carry my bike and giant bags of paintball gear around easily. Along with people friends when going to skateparks/paintball fields outside of NY. I just wonder how insurance/pricing of the veloster turbo will compare to a 2011 wrx or older Sti.
