So I have decided to sell my 06 6mt coupe and get a 6mt sedan.
what are the advantages vs. disadvantages?
Lately I have been noticing the sedans and they have really grown on me, im really liking how they look!
Maybe im getting old,

 

If half the coupe people read this thread, they would disown you.

Pros: Cheaper to buy, cheaper to insure, MUCH bigger trunk, large backseat for 3, lighter, and overall just better in every single aspect.

Cons: Looks to some (i dont really care. I love the way the sedan looks)

 

yea Im only selling the coupe cuz i need to pay off credit card bills and some loans, otherwise I would keep it, noticed that the Sedans are much cheaper, so thats why I want one lol

this is the car btw http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...er_id=65277945

 

Really no disadvantage other than looks which varies differently among people.

 

Are the sedans heavier than the coupes?

 

Sedan is lighter than the coupe

 

^truth

 

Word^^

 

Hmmm....interesting. Could you please explain how?

 

^Nothing to explain really. Weigh a Sedan, then weigh a Coupe. The Sedan will weigh less than the Coupe.

 

It doesn't weigh a lot less, but it is lighter... I've heard lots of opinions on why that is, but I'm not sure really.

 

^Isn't it like 50-100lbs less or something like that. IIRC it wasn't much.

 

^Depends on the trim level. I think that's about right though.

A fully loaded, everything sedan probably weighs more than a completely stripped coupe.
But if the trim level and transmission is the same, the sedan is always just a bit lighter.

 

strange, never thought the sedan would be lighter, I know the 350z is lighter than the coupe but its probably due to that fact that Zs are only 2 seaters...

 

From what I have read a similarly equipped sedan will weigh ~ 80# less than the coupe. It has to do with the support around the doors on the coupe, has to be beefier to support the weight of those big doors.

I could be totally wrong though so who knows exactly why.
