So why did you pick a sedan over a coupe?

there's a lot of coupe bashing on here, but that's alright. we all know where it's coming from....

too bad they dont make the sedan in green.

Are coupe owners jealous of sedan owners? What about convertible owners? The vehicles are all similiar in price and cater to different demographics. It only makes sense that certain people would have a preference for one of over the others. That's why all 3 models sell well.

The sedan is more practical for sure, but the coupe is more sexy. Wait, did I just say that? Yeah, I guess I did.... Well, the coupe is just beautiful with nice flowing lines. Sorry, but I just can't say the same for the sedan. But hey, it is more practical, just like a Camry! LOL

oh and, I really do have 3 kids which was kinda why I went with the sedan...the above is just a bonus.

LOL at this guy ^^^^ driving a 13.60's car and thinking it's some kind of drag strip warrior!

Hey, I don't know where you race, but 13.60's would put you among the slowest cars on the track around here, even on "street night".

2 dogs and a future kid

My wife wanted the EX but I didn't like how high it felt when driving it... plus I wanted a more agile/fun car.

2.5 year old daughter needs a seat in the back! She loves it by the way . Right now I'm firmly a sports sedan sort of guy, and having owned my G37x for 1 month now, I'm well pleased with it.

The years of owning a coupe are either behind me (couldnt afford it back then anyhow), or ahead of me (and it'll be a porche by then, come hell or high water)!


My wife wanted an EX too, but no way. I could be talked into an FX if the money was right maybe.

Yeah, toddler + 1 more on the way. I would have probably gone for a Mustang GT if I wanted a coupe. Although I'm glad I got what I got. Turns out I like all the pseudo-luxury features.

you're missing the point & don't need to be a d*ck. against most other stockers and slightly modded cars, this car is incredibly consistent and quicker to 1320 than most coupes. ive only had trouble with BMW M's and vettes. j/a

I considered a Porsche, but went with the G. One of my buddies bought a used Porsche a year ago. It's nice but the overhead to drive it and maintain it is almost insane.

As the saying goes "If you have the money to buy two Porsches, you can afford to own one."

i think they both look fantastic but the coupe has the edge though. unfortunately i need a 4 door with more back seat room at the moment.
