^This, when I was car shopping I have locked eyes on the hatch sport (Canadian). but I really wanted leather armrest so it would forces me to go to the sport touring model, which is about $38000 CAD with tax included. at that price range I could just get the accord sport as well but that's when I realize if I was gonna drop this much money then why am I looking at Civics? Anyhow at the end of the day I went home with the sedan sport due to a really good promotion back in February.Please just go test drive them. Two very different cars. Knowing nothing about the type of car you want or need makes it even harder.. Do you need the flexibilty of the hatch? Do you want a larger interior compartment? Is there a significant cost difference that is an issue?
