Default Does a 4 dr have potential?

Ok ok everyone says 2dr is way better and much lighter and all that jazz. I have a 93 Civic LX 4dr. Now i kno the motor in it has to go in it. But does the 4dr body have potential? Should i just scrap it and get somthing like a hatch? Just curious.

Nope...we have to make sure you're not an idiot...and so that you will read the various forum rules....so you won't post up the wrong stuff in the wrong forums.

So you're saying that the time and money you've put into your nice car wasn't worth it?!

4 Doors are nice and make killer sleepers. Do it right and you'll be glad you did.

I've got a four door, and its lighter than the ex coupes. They have just as much potential as the coupes. You just have to do the right stuff. Good luck. Check out mine. I'm sort of in between styles at the moment. I was a ricer, and am trying to crawl my way out of that hole. http://www.cardomain.com/id/civicseth
