I really wish they'd bring back the cubic inch displacement rating instead of using liters. It would be cool if they had insignia on the hood like the 440 Magnum, 383 Magnum or 426 Hemi badges on the 1970 models. 345 Hemi looks much cooler (not to mention BIGGER) than 5.7 Hemi. This is America, dammit. We should stick with a perfectly good measuring system devised in England.
I totally agree with you on that. My father had a Plymouth Fury III, and the thing on the front center of the hood had "383" on it. I know what *that* means, but this litre stuff is hard to translate. I don't recall where else on that car the "383" might have appeared.

Also, about the "coupe", I drive a Honda Accord coupe, and it's 2 door, but of course the back windows don't go down. It's got the look of the center bar. But it's the sportier model, and with the V6, the closest I could get to what I'd like to have but with better gas mileage. The closest that I like the LOOK of, I should say..

I think of a "sedan" as a four-door, family type car. I don't know the differences in roofs you guys are talking about, can you give me some examples?
