If they did that than it would have to be a two seater plus making it a hatchback wouldn’t increase cargo room it’ll be the same. the coupe is fine just the way it is
Why would it have to be a two seater? The Integra coupe and RSX were hatchbacks and they had back seats. Also, it would increase cargo space since you could pile crap up to the back window!

The reason I said this I owned a 2004 tiburon GT which is shorter than a 10th gen civic and at 6’5” tall
No body can sit behind me so the back seats were useless

It ticks me off that when I do find something I'd like to add , it costs WAY more for the coupe than the sedan etc.
Examples are mud guards and the louvers that ikon makes.
One thing I haven't been able to find, that I've seen guys with sedan get, is some carbon fiber window pillar trim pieces. Looks like I may have to try to wrap them.

It seems like coupes have become more of a specialized car these days
Think about it even trying to find a two door pickup or a two door Jeep wangler is rare

The Civic is the last the FWD compact coupes, with the demise of the Scion tC and Kia Forte Koup, among others. I wouldn't be surprised if the CivicX is the last generation of coupe either.

The front of the sedan and coupe are identical. It's everything behind the A-pillar that is unique in the coupe.

Hyundai had the Elantra coupe for 2013 & 2014 I had the 2014 it was a nice car but for that sporty coupe feel it wasn’t there

I was so close to getting an SI coupe. I do love the look and now that you guys mention it, I don’t see too many compared to sedans and hatch’s. Unfortunately it came down to that SI coupe or a Type R... And I wasn’t missing out on this generations R like I did the last. :drive:

They should make the type r coupe
If other auto manufacturers made a R version of a model it usually was a coupe are two door hatchback. Like say a Acura integra Type R

I think the coupe is sharp looking & would like to get an Si in Tonic Yellow.
It's a head turning color! Also note it's very much a love it or hate it color, I've got waves and thumbs up in traffic and also been laughed at. But I love it! 8000km and still stop to look at it out my window!
