just out of curiousity please vote for the poll.....so we can see which is the more populaur among 240 enthusiasts...(sp?)

what do you own.....please only vote if you own a 13....or did at one time.......this will tell us what is more common. fastback or coupe.

which do you like better......this will tell us which the 240 community likes more.....

either way i think it will be a close poll but interesting to see the results.

so owners can vote for their car.......and people that don't own a 13 can vote for which one they like better....which 13 do you, or did you own? and which do you like better?

Coupes are the sexier car by FAR! None of that hatchback crap, trunks rule! :)

Coupes are more rare, we dont need a poll to know that. I think the figures were about 3 hatches for every coupe.

Its a tough choice, both are sexy in their own right.

i think coupse do have a classy more sophisticated look.. and thats fine. but hatchbacks look MUCH more sporty and 'ready to run' so to speak... i own a hatchback and i love it, but i plan on getting a coupe as well, eventually...

fastback, i think the coupe looks too much like a older 90-93 integra in the back, and since i own a Z32 i am used to the hatchback look, only advantage i see in the coupe is the better chassis (stiffer) and lighter weight overall. But those specs are mere competition, it dont apply to me.

I own two hatches, but like both equally.

Ideally, I'd have a hatch and two tone coupe w/hud. :drooling

they're both nice but if you have the fastback you can do the 180SX conversion and that is downright the sexiest thing ever! :eek:

I own a 90 hatch and a 89 coupe. The coupe is much better in my opinion.

I crashed my hatch I'm about to buy another. The trunk space in a coupe seems very limited. I also transport parts from the junkyard in my 240. Nick

i like both equally. I'd rather have a coupe than my hatch. I like the silvia front conversions on coupes especially.

what if you have both?? Haha im a lucky bastard! Actually I like the coupe better because its got HUD an its so rare an so sexy with a silvia conversion. But I love the hatch if it had a kouki tails type a wing an wide body kit haha.

If I got a coupe I would have to do the sivia front end conversion, I just dont think they look right with the pop ups. I like the way the f/b looks stock, like it so much I had to get 2:)

coupes definitely look better with a silvia nose. i would love to get one for my car, but i just don't have the change to drop on it right now.
