Sedan vs Hatch Weight & Space difference?
always liked the EF sedan.. now that ive got my ZC hatch i may think about keeping an eye out for a clean sedan to drop the ZC into and play with. so how much more does a sedan weigh than a hatch and also is there much more room in a sedan than in a hatch?
just an idea ive been tossing around

i agree
The EF Sedan's are as light or almost as light as some EG/EK hatch's. 2300-2400lbs or so depending on the trim level, so as far weight, it's not a big disadvantage. I've always preferred the aforementioned "usuable space" of the hatchback though.

yato me the sedan is like taking a hatch back and pushing back the back window to make a trunk.. so its almost the same amount of metal and such.. if that makes any sense to people. sedans seem to be getting popular.

I've got a zc in a 90 lx sedan. I love it.
The car is alot of fun, i also own a hatch. The hatch is stock though so obviously i like the sedan more. But with that said, it's still worth the swap.
Sedan FTW!

i had a hatchback and have a four door now.
i think that a four door has more "people" room
and the hatchback has more "box" room as stated
but in the end its about the same but hatches are sexier
