I own a coupe and a sedan of the same year, 05. They feel very different; in the corners coupe is more composed, the way it rides and sitting position are also much better in the coupe. the sedan is much more practical but you cannot have 3 adults in the back comfortably. as for the coupe's rear seats, head room is lacking if your over 6"1 with decent leg room. i would talk about the exhaust noise but that could be changed in either car, if on the other hand you were not going to change the exhaust then its the coupe all the way! the sedan is silent.

I appreciate the comparison. Guess I'll have to test drive.

i'd say get another coupe. but that IP one, even if it really is at 2k kms, i would think twice.. a car is meant to be driven, not driving it will hurt it as well.

just the way u talked about the coupe at the last meet I know you'll never go another way haha!

I'm not 19 either, and I've met Sam before. And are you saying G coupes aren't for ricers, we've become the new "civics" of the fast and furious era...?(I've owned one for 5 years now)

Anyway it was just an idea for a 4 door car that has some edge.

If I was to choose between the sedans, I would go with the 2nd Gen Sedan, I like the performance and the tech improvements over the 1st Gen Sedan. Although I must say I love the look of a modded 1st Gen.

Ricer? no.

An Evo X being a more expensive car than the G and out performs it in every single aspect including interior comfort? Need to drive an EVO before you can slam the name.

interior comfort??? never! i could barely sit in the seat and im like 170 lbs 5'11. it rides harsher then the G (better for handling) and it has a cheaper feel inside then any year G. performance wise the new one is the weakes evo so you will always be driving a car that you know the other brothers are better...

on the other hand the evo can be made to look really nice and has good potential for big power gains compared to the G.

The evo x I drove out performed, handled, rattled less and rode better than my STOCK G.

I'm about the same build as you and I was comfy as hell.

If we're onto boosted saloons, why not a WRX?
