I own a sedan, its a family car, lots of room in the trunk, can't say there is much room in the hatch though.

Two things

One, if you buy an echo, buy the front plastic hood gaurd. The hood is extremely vertical at the front and after 140,000 Km on our 2000 the hood almost looks as though someone tried to shoot holes in it with a 22 at 1000 yards. (only way I can explain the dints)

Only mechanical problem we had is the water pump had to be replaced at like 119,XXX KM, extended warranty ran out at 120000, bearing was worn. So make sure you check the bearings at 119,000.
