My 5k looks like a Coupe

Just happened to look out the front door at the rear view of my pearl 87
5ktq. It is parked about 10 feet away facing the street, in the rain. My
door is two feet above street level, which puts my head about 8 feet above
and behind the car.

 From that perspective, the squared off rear outline of the famous Coupe
dominates, and the notch of the sedan trunk is gone, and I could have a
Coupe in my front yard!

It was a pleasant surprise to discover my sedan's kinship with automotive
legends. I already appreciated the handling and engineering, but now (at
some angles) my car resembles a piece of history.  I like that.
