My coupe works for my family and our 17 month old daughter. She does not ride in the G often, usually in my wife's SUV. The SUV is for shopping and visiting grandparents. The G is for PIMPIN.

I can't stop thinking that I should have gotten a Coupe. I love the way it looks and also the extra ponies.

I've got two small children and the sedan seemed like "the right thing to do" at the time, but hey! I could still fit the kids in the back of the coupe.

What do you guys think ? Have any of you owned both ?
Did you receive the PM I sent you?

Yep, had both and ended up with a Sedan again. For me I prized the extra space, doors, and bigger trunk, but you must decide what's important to you.

i think the sedans look way more luxurious than the coupes do...especially if you put on the right rims with it...gives it the classy look...and also..u see a coupe every 5 mins on the road...

The head room in the couple is lower and no back seat room for an adult. I ended up buying a sedan and love it so far.

In the eye of the beholder...

If you are wishing you had gotten a Coupe.. then go get one!
Sedans do look good, but I see alot of soccer moms around here driving them.
