Choosing between the Sedan and Coupe

I’m planning on replacing my daily driver 95 6-speed Acura Legend coupe with a G35, but am having a real problem choosing between a 6MT Sedan and a 6MT Coupe. Kids are grown, so I don’t need the extra doors.

Did you consider the coupe and what, besides the extra two doors, made the difference for you?

I much prefer the coupe’s appearance, and like the extra power. But I need all the trunk space I can get, and the coupe’s very small trunk is a major limitation. I also want a comfortable ride, and I am wondering if the coupe’s suspension may be too stiff. I drove a 6MT sedan and thought that the ride was good.

Thanks for your help,

Jim

Hey Jime

I have a Sedan and I love it.. others have Coupes and they love it.. If you need the trunk space I would say go with the Sedan.. the 20 HP differnece (and more) can be made up with a CAI and an exhaust

I needed the sedan for the extra space in the back seat aswell as the trunk (for my solo barric L7's)

 

Since you already have the RL with 4 doors, and the RX, why not go for the coupe. Its all preference though. I like having 4 doors, and since its my only car...

get the coupe if u wants a sports car, get the sedan if u want a sleeper and less tickets (my reason)

 

^-- less tickets? I think not.. haha been pulled over 7 times since ive gotten my G..

 

Hi,

I was going to get the coupe, but I liked the seats better in the sedan so I got the 6mt version. I like the look of the coupe better, and some of the options made me drool, but I like my sedan and I do not miss the 20 HP, I can''t do 100 MPH all the time in Los Angeles. Either one is a killer car, the 6mt sedan is cheaper.

 

I went with the sedan and absolutely love every minute in it. I also think the appearence of the coupe is better and more eye-catching than the sedan, but I also went with the full aerodynamic kit on my sedan to spice it up. It really comes down to a matter of choice and opinion, I love the style of the coupes, but I love the room of the sedan, you can't lose with either. Good luck.

Once you own the best, everything else is just the rest...

 

I love my sedan. I would not change it for the world. Both of my brother have 2 door cars and we end up taking mine out because it is easy and there is a lot of room. Regardless you'll be haqppy with a G.
