There are lots of us on here with coupes. There was an entire multi-page post full of coupes.

For me I had an FC as my first car and kinda got tired of a hatch. But a hatch is useful, especially if its your only car.

indeed, "bed"

but his first post lead me to believe he was under the impression he was the only one that owned a coupe...not only is every s14 a coupe, but theres plenty of s13 coupes out there

im going to get a coupe to match my hatch sometime

If I had to get another 240(I will sometime), I would just get whatever is in better condition. ..but if I had to choose one out of two that were in equally good condition, I'd get a coupe...

The hatch does have its advantages... mainly this:

Sorry for the small picture.. That's a complete z32 subframe and a pair of s14 upright/axle assemblies. Take that coupe lovers.

I've honestly always like the coupes better.

I think it's my favorite 240/Silvia, even more so than the Kouki S14 (what I've got) or the S15.

yeah people have fetishes for different things since you have a 14kouki why not sell it for like 7-8k then buy a couple for like 1-2k and use the 6k to restore it "beautify" lol

I have a hatch but I want a coupe. I just don't have the money to buy one. Maybe I can talk someone into a trade.

Thank you! I was lost til you said that.

Theres a S13 coupe in my apt complex that Ive been eyeing. Its weird though, when the S13 was new, I loved the hatch. Now I kinda like the coupe better.

I don't like the coupe.. it's too long.

Besides, if I'd bought a coupe, that woulda killed my tradition of owning hatchbacks.

Yea i used to want a hatchback, but now i like the styling of the coupe alot better. I wouldn't mind picking one up and turning it into cruisin' car. My neighbor has a nice light blue 90' se and it looks really nice for a 15 year old car.

personally i like the look of hatches but they look like probes and aren't as rigid as coupe bodies(i think or vice versa)coups look awesome personnally but they have crappy aerodynamics

Power can overcome aerodynamics. And the hatch only looks like a Probe slightly from the rear.

+1 to that

I like the coupe's a little more than the hatch, especially with the silvia front end, but if i was buying an s13, i would not be picky about it. they both are hot.

I have a coupe with a silvia front, sure its bangin, but I like the hatch just as much

If I get another s13, it will be a hatch, because its boring to have two of the same thing.
