Default 4dr vs 2dr

How much faster would a 2dr coupe be racing a 4dr sedan with the same setup and driver...etc. Civic that is.

I would think a coupe would be slightly faster than a sedan with the exact same engine, etc. because the coupes weigh a bit less. It would hardly be noticeable though.

Who needs a 2 door when you can have the best of both worlds?

Every body asks me why i choose a sedan vs a coupe. i have no use for a coupe. but the difference is so little i doubt it would change anything. i pull on si's all the time... but those do have b16's. a 99 ex coupe is 2559 and a 99 ex sedan is 2561.
