Which do you perfer, Coupe or Fastback?? I think the coupe looks better, buts thats just my opinion.

hookedup240 · 04-22-2003, 08:47 PM

this should be in the polls section, i think there is already a poll for this anyway.

TheSparo · 04-22-2003, 08:49 PM

and many many other threads on it... search owns u

*HaLo* · 04-22-2003, 08:56 PM

hmm...
this has been posted waaaay too much.

GTGuy06 · 04-22-2003, 08:57 PM

srry, forgot to check the polls section

*AceInHole* · 04-22-2003, 09:15 PM

This thread doesn't seem to have been gone over specifically, at least not within working polls (since all the old ones no longer have voting).

Anyways, coupe = supposedly stiffer and lighter.

Bbandit · 04-23-2003, 03:32 AM

hehe just cuz i own a coupe

kandyflip445 · 04-24-2003, 01:31 AM

Oh and don't forget the biggest thing that makes a weight difference.....THE DRIVER!!!!!!! If you're really anal about saving weight on your car then just lose some weight!!!! IT'S FREE! And buy the hatch cause it looks better and stuff like James said.

DuffMan · 04-26-2003, 12:25 AM

The hatch is MUCH easier to have sex in.

DuffMan · 04-26-2003, 12:48 AM

Nissan designed a whole line of compact cars designed specificly for trunk sex.

Anyone else notice the styling similarities to the Murrano?

hookedup240 · 04-26-2003, 09:59 AM

haha yea looks like the murrano

but anyway i think that the fastbacks look better, especially stock vs. stock.

jnike · 05-04-2003, 04:56 PM

the hatchback has too much glass on it. All hail the coupe

driftk2000 · 05-09-2003, 03:04 AM

I own a fastback but recommend the coupe. I didn't like the looks

of the coupe like the tail lights, but there are some stylin' tricks to

make the back look nice.. like adding a silvia spoiler even one off

of an s14 and it depends on what color the car is.

elevator · 05-23-2003, 12:39 AM

The only coupes worth a damn are the genuine Silvias. But the best is the best of the 180sx mixed with the best of the Silvia....thus....Sileighty.

Hmmmm point made... Fastback

Fastback > all

today I just picked up a recliner in my hatch. I'd like to see a coupe do that. Its times like these when I'm moving up to school when I realize just how great a hatchback is.

Structural rigidity be damned, the Fastback's styling is far better, just look at japan where it stayed in production from 88-98.

For those who would rather have their car with stanza taillights

get a coupe.

all out race interior stripped race car = coupe

livable, great looking car = fastback

CrispMofo · 08-10-2003, 07:35 AM

i have a fastback but...
..i like the coupe more coz the side windows remind me of the skyline plus the coupe is more stiffer and lighter for me. whhooohoo

*Yuri* · 09-01-2003, 04:05 PM

I like the roofline of the coupe, but in general the best looking s13's are the kouki 180SX and the sileighty. The sileighty's lines flow nicely, especially with a wangan wing. But maybe I'm biased

96SEChick · 09-28-2003, 09:00 AM

When it comes to S13's, I am definitely a fastback fan.

rps13sh · 10-13-2003, 09:54 PM

i love both models. i want to convert a coupe to a silvia and my fastback into s13.5

bobmeindertsma · 11-05-2003, 11:44 AM

Fastbacks all the way

90Coupe · 11-05-2003, 12:14 PM

which one to choose? i would have to say coupe cause i own a coupe. They both look good i just like the coupe

lhracer05 · 11-07-2003, 02:17 AM

Coupe for sure! Look how pretty it looks.

Devilish240 · 11-07-2003, 04:04 PM

Coupe for sure!! It was my dream to own an S13 coupe.. it was! lol Now I got it plus the S14! Yeeeah

ONYX S-13 · 11-14-2003, 06:13 PM

Fastback

importfan1 · 11-23-2003, 01:14 AM

Coupe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

foodawg · 12-14-2003, 02:04 PM

i think the fatsback looks better, north america shoulda gotten the silvia front ends for the coupes.. damn coupes gotta copy the 180sx front!

silvias13_180sx · 12-20-2003, 04:50 PM

FASTBACK!!

K240 · 12-21-2003, 02:47 AM

Whats the point of an S13 without getting a Fastback ?

The coupe just doesn't look right.....Looks like the designer didn't get his coffee that morning or something

Try having sex in a coupe....

.....Well,I damn sure wouldn't be able to do that...the FB isn't exactly easy,and I've been in the back of a coupe...
