Hell yeah, its all about the bling bling. I had a serious talk with my insurance agent about why they had designated it as a 4dr hatch back and not a wagon. He honestly told me that the company gets a lot for premiums if it was designated as a hatch. I mean when was the last time a wagon was considered high risk:-D (i guess now it can be)

I can't decide what to call my car, around here girls like to call it a short wagon, guys call it a long hatch...I go WTF!!!
when you are around the women....agree with them.....when around your buds...agree with them....if you are in a group....agree with the women! lol

They compare it in Motor Trend qwith the PT cruiser and Toyota Matrix so it is a cross over car.

Is a little of this and a little of that.

= what the hell it looks good I bought it.

I like my hatch Back/Sports Wagon/Cross Over protege.

Thats all the bs I have to say
I am out of this forum like butter on toast

Dictionary.com says a hatchback is:
An automobile having a sloping back with a hinged rear door that opens upward.

By that definition the Protege 5 is a wagon.

I say just make up a new name.

I nominate whatchback.
