I'm not saying the watermelon crap is right. I'm just saying that when the GD chassis came out, there was a ton of bitching about a lack of coupe, and the reasoning from Subaru was that it's 'cause they were able to make the GD significantly stiffer
for rallying, but that it required 4-doors only. The purpose wasn't for safety alone, they were improving the platform to go racing.
