I think they quit selling the g4 up here a few years ago so it's now super rare!

I guess I could imagine why people didn't like the G4. Hatch's kind of have a sporty look, just by the virtue of being a Hatch. I don't look at the Mirage Hatch and see sporty. But as a general rule, I kind of see Hatch's in a sporty light.

However, when it comes to the G4, I tend to think the skinny tires on the G4 detracts from its initial impression more than it does on the Hatch, due to this inherent notion that a Hatch is more sporty. However, the little skinny tires are a part of what makes these cars effective ... these skinny tires have a point, they achieve many things. In my eye though, the little skinny tires (on both) have become kind of sexy. And when I note the skinny tires on the G4, to me, it has began to look "right." And I think the sedan body is more attractive in any event. So, I'm a huge G4 fan. I've kind of got G4 envy. But I wanted to try the Hatch, so I have no regrets owning one.
