>They didn't hurt nobody
yeah but nobody needed them
:^)
They're just pretty
With how tiny trunk lids are they look like a much better option. Hell the new Civic looks like a liftback but isn't.
It is in Europe.
They're still around.
Meanwhile in based Yurop.
>They didn't hurt nobody
So who did they hurt?
superb owl is a fantastic car
Just have to look in the right places
>Hatchback.
Hatchbacks!?...they are the scurge of Europe...
>SUPERB
lmao
>why'd they take them away?
In soviet Russia they did not
>i am from us
except the current superb no longer has that
Audi A7
*is pretty much the only one you can buy new, but it's pretty much the best looking liftback ever.
Damn my ADHD
>What happened to liftbacks
Lots of american cars stopped lifting up the rear window because that weakened rear collision safety requirements. With increased requirements, manufacturers reduced the rear window visibility in order to have the rear windshield part of the body instead of a large lifted door. The trunk lid still opens with a low threshold. It certainly is useful to have that low rear threshold when carrying long things such as lumber or a long PVC pipe. It also makes it much easier to get groceries and cargo in and out of the car. The only thing I don't like is the reduced visibility thru the rear window.

sick Mustang bro
hnnngggh
That's a goatseback
>tfw Datsun is now a rebadged Lada
>absolute madmen
>GERMAN ENGINEERING
It's fucking ugly as fuck.
lada always was a shitty rebadged something
Okay, Americans think every car that's not a sedan or coupe looks like a shitting dog, we get it.
On that note, the Skoda Superb is a liftback too.
based f type. also i did not know the vantage was a liftback
>it will never be 80s liftback heaven again
Ironically, the only way I could get search results to pull up a Supra with the liftback open is by searching for trunk.
no, the thing is, lada is the original while datsun is the rebadge
...
Reengineered =/= rebadged
The original Lada (VAZ-2101) was very different from the Fiat it was derived from. Thicker steel, rear drums, different (albeit still Fiat) engine, longer travel springs etc
...
Makes a nice change from a fixed rear window and no trunk like the earlier ones
>What if you need to take something with you?
>>There's a passenger seat Earl, fuck your wive
>implying I'm American
Slavsquat representing, Audi A7 looks like shit and I don't agree that a car has to be a coupe or sedan to look good
But nice assumption, almost accurate
don't you slavsquats buy like 80% sedans even down to fucking subcompacts because they're seen as more respectable or something?
...
and this.
the hatch on both of these almost makes me want to buy one to replace my civic, but i want rwd
That's a cute girl
Wagons because functionality
Sedans because looks
Subcompacts are indeed seen as gay
I'm different though, I hate wagons and love compacts

not a single prius picture
Oh wow that looks nice
>posts anime reaction images
>thinks his opinion is worth anything
Why does Veeky Forums love hatchbacks so much? They're kinda ugly desu.
Why were the 80-90s so good?
>no mention of the AMC Eagle
I'm ashamed, user.
But user, they've always been like that
Is there anything the F Type CANT do?
What is a modern car made within the last 5 to 15 years that has a lift back or hatchback that is not a boring crap car.
it has to be affordable
There's always that one faggot that thinks he's clever
be relable
be affordable
>current gen jaguar
>unreliable
also the v6 is pretty affordable for what it is
This piece of shit twists and rattles like nothing else. Good example why liftbacks are generally a bad idea for poor people cars.
...
I know my opinion isn't worth shit
No one's opinion is worth shit
That doesn't stop me from sharing it, does it?

The C3 had no trunk lid. It had a shadow trunk where the roof panels could be stored, but the only way to access it was a slot behind the seats. Seriously.
The scion tc a a liftback iirc
plus it sounds fuckin neat
