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.

I bought my Focus brand new after I was a member on here. Just because I liked the car and its performace and utility mix.
I can garantee you that I will not get a coupe instead of a hatch. What a turn in the wrong direction that would be. Why would someone get a coupe that is hard for the back seat people to get out of, has no rear headroom, and cant fit anything large in the trunk when they are used to a huge hatchback with its museum in the back.
Now of course I am only speaking for me, but I KNOW that there are plenty others that will agree. Coupe is a downgrade from the hatch.
