I'm not in any way biased against the Si Sedan, and in my objective, non-prejudicial view, the Si sedan looks worse than the coupe Si.

I think the coupe is nice, but there's so much more you can upgrade with the sedan.

i would prefer the sedan instead, it's easier to deal with if you have kids.

I have a sedan, and I think the coupe looks way better, and it looks even WAY BETTER with the HFP lip kit, and Fiji! but I love my car, and since you have a sedan, you can make yours look clean and sexy as well by adding extra features.. Overall both look great, but if I had the chance to pick again I would say the coupe.

When I first saw new civics, I hated the sedan. I didn't even want to test drive it, only the coupe. But after a few months of waiting and debating I liked the sedan more. It is so much nicer if you drive people around like kids or friends. Now when I see the SI coupe I do like it, but no regrets. It's really just a toss up.

I liked the FA5 more so I bought one over a coupe. No regret's is the motto you should have. Focus on making the car unique and tastefull to you rather than looking at what everyone else has....unless it's simply to admire and get ideas for your own.

I honestly LOVE the way the coupe looks with the full HFP kit, but for my life style and growing family, I'd have to go with the sedan. It's all about whats you might think might happen in the future. Thats the way I thought about it. Still love the sedan though!

I own a coupe. Let me tell you this. Depending on your needs the sedan is more functional. Its a pain in the ass to haul large things in the backseat for work (especially with my B-pillar bar). I really wish I had the 2 doors for more functionality sometimes. Also with the 4 door you can do a JDM conversion which is pure sexiness.

My personal taste is that the coupe looks better, but then again I added a body kit to mine and LOVE the way it looks now. Still classy but very aggressive. The coupe is about 60lbs lighter I believe too. Not much but more significant than the weight savings of a CF hood and trunk together I believe.

All in all I would say it is a personal taste issue obviously but they both have pros and cons. Either way can't we all and get along?

i have a 07 sedan, i like it better because when you have passengers and its raining or whatever, shoes would get all over the seats trust me, my friend has the mitsubishi eclipse, and he's not happy at all.

also, so much more to upgrade with the sedan rather than the coupe, and its the same exact car except from the middle of the car to the back
