Why did you buy a sedan over a coupe????

Iv been interested in this topic for a while and looking to get some feedback on it. my reason is simple im not a coupe guy no offense but coupes are for chicks IMO And a sedan had enough room for me.

SO THE SIMPLE QUESTION IS WHY DID YOU BUY A SEDAN OVER A COUPE OR A COUPE OVER A SEDAN??? COUPE GUYS ARE WELCOME TO JOIN INTO THE CONVO

your reasons for a coupe vs a sedan are not valid... coupes are for... 'chicks' its like saying the sedan is for old people and you are driving your grandma's car.

i bought my sedan because it was like 2-3k cheaper than a coupe. insurance was more expensive for me on a coupe and forgot the other reason lol. that was why i got a sedan over the coupe.

in the end if i could do it all over again, i woulda prob got a coupe (with brembo's LAWL)

For me it was more practical and Ive always been a sedan person. The last coupe I owned was when I was 17.

IMO if youre going to buy a coupe, it should be a true 2 door, 2 seater. Letting people in and out of the back seat sucks.

I had a kid after i bought the sedan so i was lucky not having to switch but family wise i wish the sedan had more space in the rear and my bumper is all scratched up from putting the stroller in and out.

Because if I wanted a two door version of this car, I would have bought a Z.

I don't see the kid argument..

My dad bought this car in dec of 2002 - I was in 4th grade at the time. I sat in the back see fine up until high school.

At this point cramming friends in the backseat is only a matter of headroom.

It's definitely weird getting a car that you rode back home from the dealer in as a kid.

I'm not understanding what you mean by the kid argument?

Physically, not mentally.

Edit: I see what you're saying, by argument I mean the added difficulty would be worth getting the coupe. (Slow seats, limited access, etc.)

The sedan is my work car...

The coupe is a chic car.
I am Glad that Nissan got rid of the 2+2 Z-cars.

Pretty sure that is why there is a G35 Coupe. for the guys who are compensating for something.


For the record, my wife has a Daytona Blue 350z Roadster... Chic Car.
