FYI 30% of your sales /= "enthusiast" and "enthusiast" pay retail.
Bull****!

I'd venture to say that better then 50% of the people who visit here got their Focus with some sort of deal on it, which was a big reason why people bought it.

As for your 30% of the market just disappearing because there is no hatchback..that's total bunk. There no saying that people won't get the coupe instead, since most likely it will be the cheap version of the car much like the hatchback. If anything I expect sales to be a wash with the loss of the hatch, and if anything it might actually grow since coupes are more popular with the general public and not just Focaljet. If anything, Ford would be smart to offer both verisons, but I don't think that wouldn't be cost effective.
