Default better daily driver?

so i have found a 95 hatch and a 95 coupe i want both. and am getting both and they both have between 80000-90000 miles which would be the better daily i am planning on building the other to beat my sis's GSR. had a hatch before but it didnt feel like it had much potential so im wondering if it would make the best DD
thanks HT

you could just put a gsr in the hatch and rip on your sis... then put a type-r tranny with lsd and she will be super mad and tell your mom... use the coupe as the dd... hatches are too much fun not to make fast...

wait.... are they both manual tranny's???

honestly i'd build the coupe, the hatch can fit more crap when you go on trips, and people always expect them to be fast.

the coupe is an easier sleeper, the hatch is a better....everything, so DD the hatch.

you got lucky with that accident to this man!

IMO, build either one of them..what ever one you want to build is the one that you should build..i would build the coupe..just like the a couple posts before me said..its an EASY sleeper..you can make it almost as light as the hatch but i think that the coupe would be a lil more unique..cuz you see built hatches 10 timez more thatn you see a built coupe

I say use the hatch as the DD, and build the coupe. Only because EG coupes look sick.
