looks like a mini Elantra GT.. I like hatchbacks.. I prefer them in everything but my sports cars. The ultimate compromise between being able to haul stuff, carry people, and still have a decent amount of ride and performance. Personally, I always thought the four door Accent's trunk was far too small... especially the opening

Yeah, I've always like the look of the 5-door over the Sedan. Like you said, the 5-doors have been available in Europe since 2000.

I definitely like the new HB accent. Has more style than the regular sedan.

This is a clear example of how diffrent moddels are avalibel around the world. The 5 and 3 door LC2 came out at the same time in 2003 here in the UK. Don't see why they do that?

i'll stick to my elantra gt! thanks

Why do people want a 5 door? i have always perferd a 3 door more sporty and i think they look better.

After using a 5 door for a few days i would never go back to the 3 dr Accent. IMO the 5 door looks better and having 4 doors is a real convenient option when it is being used as a commuter car. So much more convenient if you have a car seat too.

in this case i would say the 5door fixes the one thing that annoyed me about the lc2. the 3dr looks like someone took a nicely designed front end/rear end and squished them together. always felt the car should be abit longer and the 5dr does that nicely. plus i feel all naustolgic when i look at it...my first hyundai ever was a 5dr 89 excel
