Dad had a hatchback and I liked it.
3 cyl toy motor.
Great mileage at 45-55mpg.
Lightweight. Very tossable. This teen tried his best a few times.
The whole thing is a crumple zone.

Door handle broke soon after.
Plastic replacement mechanism from GM was $350 or $450 I think. Even way back then.
I glued it together and it worked but I don't know for how long. He didn't say. I would have fixed it again.

I also pulled out the front grill mounts and replaced the top portion of the frame.
The metal was about as thick as aluminum foil.
