Question Name That Car!

My sister sent me this pic from her commute to work in Atlanta. Basically, she asked if I could identify the car... I can't. Can anyone here identify it?

After doing a little digging, I found that it resembles the new Subaru Imprezza Wagon... but the tails are definitely different...

Looks to me like an older Saab 9-3 hatchback.

I don't think it's a Saab... it kinda looks like an older Fiat, but I'm trying to find a picture.

NOPE it's an older Seat Leon!

The Seat Leon looks about right.

The pic of the yellow one kinda reminds me of a mini-sized Cayenne...

Haha, Seat Leon was my first guess too. Maybe someone drove it up from Mexico?

I think this makes the most sense. How the heck would a Seat wind up in Atlanta.

It was actually in Atlanta, GA... My sister spotted it. She sent me a text in the morning asking "can you id this? It starts with an 'S'. Seat Leon makes sense... Not to mention their logo is just one big *** S...
