ok well i currently have an em2 and i know im in the wrong forum.. but im trading in for an 8th gen si.. and i test drove both the coupe and sedan. but i just want to see if theres anything i should know b4 getting one. and i wanna know if u guys have any frustrations with ur 2dr or 4dr si.. thanks

 

i don't see having either a 2dr vs a 4dr would have more problems over one or the other

 

well i meant if there were any problems.. like cables breaking or.. you know random things.. i really dont know if the coupe is better than the sedan..

 

I love my coupe. I have not had any significant problems. The downfall I guess would be that I cant do a CSX swap but a FA2 can. I dont really like the stock fromt on the 4 door I think it looks a bit flatter.

 

I'm more of a coupe fan. I have one. The sedan Si's a slowly growing on me, but I still think the coupes look like sleek.

 

It just comes down to personal preference... I don't think either body style has any more issue than the other.

yea, the coupe guys will tell you the coupe is better.. sedan guys will tell you the sedan is better..

 

whats the body weight between the two,

 

right at 60lbs difference.. not really enough to matter

 

you can look cool in a coupe.

or get *** in a saloon...

 

It all depends on what you use it for if you dont have friends jumping in and out of it get the coupe but if you drag people around all day get the sedan a little more room less complaining.

is this the old west?? or did you mean to say sedan?

 

Ive had both and i prefer the sedan. Easier to clean the back seats, easier to take people with you, less blink spots, i could go on but i wont. I like the coupe too, I just like the sedan better.

 

Here's my take

If you're going to leave the look stock, take a coupe over the sedan IF you don't need the extra two doors and you're basing this of pure looks.

However, I think the sedan looks MUCH better looking than a coupe if you get the mugen wing and the mugen lip kit on the car. Better yet, any kind of conversion to the sedan (like changing the front end) looks insanely good.

It really all does come down to preference - don't let those idiots tell you the 60 lb diff is gonna be noticable in a race. I drove both the coupe and sedan, and while I liked the coupe's look better, the sedan felt the EXACT same, and I thought it looked better than the blue coupe since it was white.. and I'm partial to the taffy white. And the other two doors is nice

 

I dig the looks of the sedan better.

 

the sedan looks better IMHO.
We ran the 2dr and 4dr and they were neck and neck, the 60lbs doesn't really matter. As far as problems go, there great cars, no real problems. On the drivers AC vent, the little tab fell off, the rubber on my back passenger window also got a little binded up. Just took it in, got it fixed and detailed for free. minor problems...

 

He meant saloon...it's what the euros (brits) call a sedan...

I didn't know South Jersey had many Brits

good info though.. learn something new all the time

 

Maybe he watches Top Gear? Station wagons are called "estates" over there, too.

 

dont count on having 4 other passengers regularly if you get the coupe

 

hm so the sedan weighs more than the coupe?? cuz my em2 weighs more than a es1 for some weird reason =/

Nice windscreen, tosser.

 

i love the looks of the sedan, i looked at both before i bought my fa5. its much more practical with virtually the same performance. nice job for honda to come out with a 4 dr
