Is it because you just want 4 doors and more back seat leg room, or because its better at the track (via your avitar) with your mods

One thing i have noticed about both cars even no stock suspension is that sedan is easier to toss around in tight corners than the coupe. Im not sure what the reason is but i did "feel" that when i drove them back to back. At the end of the day they are the same exact car with just two more doors.

B.Money my reason for going with 03-04 is the reason that MIA BlazinVQ mentioned. Brembos which u never have to worry about going after market even if u track the car 7 days a week, and less chance of getting a motor that will consume lots of oil.

Non-revups take a bigger power drop after 6200 RPM's, whereas revups are a bit flater (doesn't lose as much power) in terms of power after 6200 RPM's. Most dyno's will prove this (disregarding the power numbers, as that's not what im really talking about.). Nothing surpricing since revups have different cams than non-revups.
B.Money, I'd say go with the 06 Coupe 6MT. It has slightly better suspension in stock form in comparison to the 03-04 Coupes, has a better interior, better headlights & tail lights, better front bumper, better engine, and other misc things. (Just cross your finger and hope you don't get one with oil consumption.)

Throw some mods into the sedan and that thing can handle VERY well. Vlad (klubbheads) really shows us how in the Canyons
