I was always disappointed that the awesome green and later yellow on the civic was coupe only. I hope they make those colors available on the four or five door now that the coupe is dead.

I just wish we could keep the coupe. I liked the look they had going on but Honda never bothered to tell anyone they exist.

I didn't know the coupe was dead! I guess that officially makes VW the only company that makes 2 and 4 door models of their smallish cars now?

Yeah, this latest generation seems to have the fewest amount of coupes I see on the road. Can’t say I’m that surprised it’s going away.
I’m glad they’re keeping the hatchback around.

The Golf has been 5 door only for a while now, don't think VW offers anything without rear doors here in the states.

The hatch is built in the Swindon plant which is scheduled to close in 2021.

since a good H onda will last 15-20 years, I’m hoping this is just a gap of 5-7 years before they bring the coupe back! I’ll wait...

I think the Accord Coupe's market is still strong. They sold tons of those last gen coupes.

I can’t agree more. Those are Damn fine colours and I have no idea why they’re not available on the hatch at least. When I think cheap hatchback I think sunny skittles colours

They’re gonna move production of the hatch to North America... hopefully Alliston, Ontario.

Well not for the current generation. But here's hoping Honda wants to make a hatch for the next gen.

My theory seems to have been proven likely true.
With UK production of the hatchback coming to an end, and coupe sales dwindling, I figured Honda would cut the coupe to make room for moving hatchback production to North America.
Now, the only part of my theory left is the Type-R...does it’s production move alongside the NSX and PMC Edition Acuras in Ohio, or does it just move to wherever hatch production goes?
