e30 Sedan vs. Coupe - which would you start with?

[Jon325i]

I cast my vote for the coupe simply because I've owned 3 of them. In terms of styling, my order of preference is: coupe, 'vert, 4-door. In its defense, there are some good reasons for the sedan. Namely...

1. practical
2. fixed back racing seats won't hinder back seat access
3. if made into a street/track car, the rear doors makes toting the extra set of wheels/tires a snap...even if you had a basic 4-point cage

Now as time goes on and more E30s fall into hands of neglecting owners, the 4-doors are going to be the nicer examples since they tend to be long-term family owned cars which were maintained properly. There are a few late model E30 sedans in my area which look real sharp - garaged most their life and usually a family guy (or gal) behind the wheel.

Coupe. 4 doors dont have any extra room in the back anyways, so if theyre cramped as it is, they might as well climb in.

The coupe looks better ;)

2dr, cause your buying it for yourself not others. Or you could go with a convertble.

I intentionally didn't put in an option for verts :D

I've decided that an e30 would be a BLAST to own. I'm undecided on which I should start with - a coupe or a sedan? I will be hauling people around on occassion, but climbing in back isn't necessarily the end of the world.

If you were going to buy and mod an 89+ e30 of your choice, would it be a coupe or sedan?
