Default coupe vs sedan

Hey y'all,

I forget exactly how,but I was once told that the coupe...out performs the sedan?Is this true?Why?Any comments in general as far as why anyone would choose either the coupe over the sedan or vice versa will be appreciated.If anyone has a clue,it is also important to me that I be able to fit a 32 inch massage table in my future civic.

Thanks!

perhaps better aerodynamics? less weight maybe(probably not by much, tho)? As far as 8thgens go, the coupe has a "sportier" suspension than the sedan, but hp is the same.
i would think the 32" table would fit as long as you fold down the rear seats, coupe or sedan.

I think coupe weighs like 100 pound less than sedan...
I own a sedan myself, but I'd prefer coupe or hatch.[:@]

coupes look better, are lighter.

the new civic coupes have better gearing, thus better performance... that and a slight weight advantage.

the automatic will take a performance hit but should still out accelerate and automatic sedan.
