Practicality. People want them, theres just so many you dont realize how many are being bought and sold daily.

At one point 3 times as many sedans were manufactured as were coupes. Many were leased so typically 3 years later you are simply going to have a glut of that model years lease return inventory.

The coupes are more demandable as compared to the sedan. Plus a G35 coupe w/ the sport package and the 19in Rays is SEXXXAAAYYY as hell!

Some sedans on DRIVER are very nice but....

I've never owned a sedan/4 door in my life, not even when my kids were small and I had to deal with all the baby baggage....I drove coupes. Maybe when I'm in my 90s....Naaaa!

I have a coupe because I already have a GS300 sedan and a Honda Pilot. No need for another sedan.

I am a sucker for modded IP sedans! So sexy!

Sedan just works for me. I think it looks good. I am not jealous of the coupes, i just give them a nod even though most of them dont even notice the sEEdan.

Coupe wouldnt work for me. Always folding the seats forward to let people in the backseat, tiny *** trunk, eh. Too much hassle. I have always been a 4door guy anyways. I love wagons, suvs, pickups, and fast sedans. I'm a sucker for practical fast

the only reason to buy the coupe is to turn heads and since its not 2003, no one's head will be turning. so basically you have a slightly heavier car with less doors that only impresses people if you get the optional flux capacitor. the only advantage I can see would be if you found one with brembos

why is telling the truth hating? The coupe was super cool back when it came out but now even the g37 is 3 years old. no one NEEDS less doors. All of the coupes supposed advantages over the sedan turned out to be blown out of proportion, like the extra 20 hp
