I drive a liftback too. I use to live right on the east coast, and drove through some pretty crazy weather, and the winds didn't seem to bother me.

It could depend on what you are coming from. Or that the winds on the san francisco bay are unique, as a good majority of the people with the wind complaints seem to hail from there.

Car reviews are extremely biased. You need to read through the reviewers biases to get to the real info nowadays. Its kind of sad.

I'm sure that's true about what you're coming from.

I can handle the wind on the road just fine, but when you're several hundred feet high up on some of the suspended bridges of the Bay Area, and it's starts blowing like crazy, that's a different story and I'm not all that sure of myself anymore.

(to be honest, the wind here can get pretty intense)

Anyway, wind or no wind, still no regrets. Car is fine for my purposes 95% of the time, which is pretty damn good.
