Well the hatchback has a hatchback, where basically the whole rear end lifts up, and the coupe has a trunk and its also called a notchback.

A hatchback/fastback that wear factory body kits are the GT models from 1987-1993 A coupe/hatchback is an LX model during those same years w/ out the body kit. GT's were all 5.0's, but the LX was an optional 5.0 or 2.3 turbo 4cyl. in earlier years. You can type Mustang 5.0 Hatchback, and or coupe, into just about any search engine and you will be able to see the difference.

i've got a 93 lx 4 cyl coupe that i have removed the motor, trans, front k member, wiring harness, and also converted it to a five speed. i love the coupe so much more for racing but i think that the hatches look so much better when they are done right
