Default eg or ek

which is a better car to get a eg hatch or a ek coupe. coupes look nicer but with a hatch i could strip it down and make it alot lighther then the coupe and put a k20 turbo in it. waht do you think?

I personally love eg hatches. But if I could get either, I would go with the EK. I miss mine.
