Crazy. Any coupe owner who thinks he can clown on the sedans is just plain wrong. No doubt its the better looking car, but when somebody hands out a "nice car" compliment to a fellow G driver and gets dogged, that's not right

When I said stupid comment--I was talking about the coupe driver's comment. I call it the coupe mentality--that no matter if you drive a 12.8 sec $80K sedan--a coupe mentality driver will call you out for it having 2 xtra doors.

Ever notice all the posts asking about wheel offsets, or other model specific questions? The coupe owners don't even write they have a coupe. They just assume everybody has a coupe. How arrogant. Most of the time sedan owners will specify they have a sedan when asking about something that is model specific.
And for all you guys that stated a coupe is better looking than the sedan like it's fact. Speak for yourselves gentlemen, I prefer the sedan by far.

I am just saying that in the grand scheme of things some would say our cars are just quick...............and they would use those cars to back their argument.

When I was doing my research it was my understanding that the coupe and the sedan where pretty much even as far as get up and go was concerned (2005 models). I thought that a large part of the difference was that the coupe was more stable in the corners. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

It's funny how a 0.2 second advantage in 0-60 times gets magnified by a lot of coupe drivers.

You can't always have the fastest car. There's always someone faster.
Certainly was a dick move by that coupe owner. Not everyone can afford a really fast car. And in the grand scheme of things, 0.2 seconds is nothing. I'd say it's almost dead-even...all it takes is a bad launch or a slightly late or early shift to close the gap.
