to me the setup feels slightly different...mainly in reference to the door, the door handle is farther back, the door arm rest is a little different...as far as ride quality and feel in that aspect I would agree it is the same

Only valid point I've seen here was that the coupe has bigger doors other than that its just been ppl trying to reason why whatever they have is better.

i dont think a coupe is better then a 4 door and i dont think a 4 door is better then a coupe. if i had a coupe im sure id love it just as much, but i own a 4 door and never have thought about switching over to a coupe.

I would like to fully build an ecotec at some point and that car will be a coupe partly because the coupe starts out 50 lbs lighter and it will have essentially one purpose which elliminates the benefit of rear doors,it also seems to me that it would possibly be a little easier to cage the coupe...If I got a good deal on a coupe I would get one but I would definately not go out of my way to find one as I genuinely do like the 4 doors better, it is more convenient when you have people with you and other stuff...I also think the interiors of the 4 doors look better, while I could agree that the coupe looks more sleek on the outside...For me the benefits of the 4 door outweigh anything for the coupe

nope...I actually have passengers a decent amount of the time, and would rather have the back seat...I don't want a coupe unless that is what best fits when I next buy one...I understand your reasoning because of drunk annoying people, but I have people ride in my car a decent amount of the time who aren't drunk or annoying

I don't have many friends that smoke and anybody who has ridden with me that does smoke has enough respect to not smoke in my car

Looks good. I personally like no emblems, but if you keep them, then black is the next best thing.

I like them, better contrast, see it from all angles....especially on the white background. Normally I like stock-style emblems and variations, but those look good.

Thanks guys. I'm thinking the door handles next. Just the handle itself, not the whole assembly.

X2 especially one a white car. I cant stand the gold ones even though they are 'better' (for the gold series) I prefer all my badges to be chrome however...

I've done my rims with this stuff, it looks fantastic, the easy removal for the logo is an awesome factor of it.
