Arrow Why a sedan?

Why did you buy the sedan? Why didn't you buy the coupe? Do people ever ask you these questions? I find it very annoying... My response is, its the exact same car, just four doors, I wanted my passengers to ride comfortably, I can always use the extra space to haul stuff around, and its really cool to have a sedan thats pretty fast and handles great! I bet these same people don't realize a 330ci and 330i are the same car either...

Today was the first day I put gas in, I had to look in the manual to figure out how to open the gas cap! Freakin' Japanese couldn't just put a button like regular cars!

i get these questions asked too. :/ People just don't appreciate the clean lines of the sedan, they ALL prefer the coupe >:{ But what THEY don't know, is how many Coupe's i've absolutely murdered out on the street.
here's some more sedans that get credit, why not the G?
IS300
Evo
WRX STi
...um G35 how bout?

I forgot to add, I would have no where to put snow skis or my bikes on a coupe.

Originally I bought my first sedan because the Coupe did not come in AWD and secondly it is easier to let my dog in the back seat with a 4 DR

Pretty much the same for me room in the back and for me its more comfortble than a coupe being 6'3. I had four maximas before and those got me hooked on 4dr car that still are pretty fast.

there's more room for more shiet and more room in the back seats... you can see a modded coupe everyday and it's no big thing... modded G sedans are rare and i get complimented everywhere i go with mine.

My dad kept pushing me to get a coupe, even up to the day I was going to buy it. I wanted the sedan mainly because:
1. I couldn't stomach spending that much on a coupe.
2. I think the sedan looks better than the coupe.
3. I never liked small cars, even the G sedan seems kinda small to me.

It would be too much of a pain to get my daughter in and out of a 2-door all the time. Plus I have always been a big fan of the G sedan.

and with all that has been said, technically, the sedan is lighter (not by much but still ligther, and has better drag coefficient) than the coupe. . .a little fact that very few coupe owners know about.

Exactly, I had a 91 maxima and that was a "4dsc". Those of you who had that car remember the sticker? Sedan so a carseat can fit also. Me and wifey didn't want to go the suv route.
