Default The Better project vehicle

I have 2 EJ coupes and will be having to sell one. The one I bought first is a 93 DX white w/tan int. currently being driven everyday. Its got the D15 has a momo steering wheel and skunk2 catback exhuast. The other is a 94 EX white w/charcoal gray int. Its competely stock needing another engine or rebuild. There both five speed 2 doors. Just wondering which one would make a better project

I prefer the fully loaded EX but it's not running. Not to mention right now the DX would get better gas mileage, which would be nice. Then again, the EX doesn't get horrible gas mileage at all. But again, it's not running.

Think about what you're looking for in a project car. Then make you decision.

I couldn't sell the running car and be stuck only with the non running car since it'd leave me with no way to get to work. Your situation might be different.

I'd also prefer to have a daily driver while I work on another car though.

I am going to rebuild or put another engine in the EX before selling any of them or
maybe I should just sell my RX7 instead since it uses the expensive gas and premix

power options are nice you will be much more happy when that project is near complete or complete.

Depends on what youre looking for. If your looking for some power swap a b series motor into the not running ex and there you go. If your looking for a dd to put some bolt ons on then the dx.
