I think the sedan is better looking than the coupe, its easier to let homies in the back seat, and the coupe is just overrated.

Coupes are straight played out. Period.

I will +100 the "no hassle from cops" part too--that's the whole reason I got rid of my S14.

Don't come into a new forum without an established name and start a post with "actually". First off, you were wrong. Secondly, you sound like an ignorant baffoon, and will henceforth be labeled as so by me.

I wouldn't say you get a "no hassle" from the cops. It depends on how your vehicle looks. If you have dark tints, no front plates, rims, drop, or any combination of those then you have a good chance of being looked at by the cops. But with coupes, the 2 door look, dual exhaust, and abundance of visual upgrades can be a bit more eye catching.

I have all of those, except I run a front plate. I also don't drive like an idiot though. That's primarily what gets people pulled over

Very true. Driving like an **** is likely to get you pulled over. I have all minus the dual exhaust, rather, I have no muffler

Got pulled over for tints, but I was also driving uber slow to conserve gas. I got let go with a warning though.

If u want to compare 0-60 times then 03 6MT sedan does 5.7 seconds and the coupe 6MT does exactly the same regardless of the year. 6.1 and up numbers are for autos for all the years regardless of the door numbers.
The reason earlier sedans were rated at 260 because the car was allowed to be filled up with 87 octane gas. After 05 the required fuel was 91 and up therefor the coupe and sedan "rated" hp became the same given the trannies are the same.

^I think I've heard some people say it, especially now since it's harder for the coupe to compete with its older brother's looks. The looks of both cars are amazing. Also, when people post VIP Sedans on this forum, coupe drivers always seemed to be a bit impressed and a bit envious.

It's because there are FAR more heavily modded coupes than there are sedans.

I would say there are probably 20 modded coupes for every 1 modded sedan.

Did you know that 87% of all statistics are made up on the spot?

All dynos read differently... even if two different shops use the same model dyno, if the calibration is different, then they'll still show different numbers. But like ttrank mentioned earlier, the numbers don't matter much... because dynos are a tuning tool, it's how the numbers change on that same dyno that matters (preferably in the same conditions or on the same day)
