nearly 3 weeks ago, I got the EX-L V6 sedan for $200 over invoice. Another dealership offered invoice price

Get the sedan

that way I have a better chance of getting the coupe I want.:banana:

besides, the sedan is more practical anyway:yes:

are you happy with the V6very much so. Power on demand at any speed. at around 1700 miles, I am averaging 25 mpg, though my current tank appears to be much more.

if you are cost conscious, the 4 cyl is very competent.

Coupe looks better IMO! Get v6 for sure! You will kick yourself in the ass later if you dont. I guess my opinion is biased though...LOL

I needed four door, but when from the 4 from my trade in to the V6. I love this motor, you could drive it nice and easy or you could just floor it and go like hell, LOL.

Some days I wish I went with a red V6 6sp coupe, other days I'm glad I stuck with the pearl white V6 sedan.

Coupe or sedan, just get the V6.

Have a BBP/Ivory coupe V6 6MT - seriously fun. Coupes may not be as pratical, but the design is the best Honda has done out of their Japan studio, IMO.

IMO, go with the sedan if you carry passengers often and need easy access to the back seat. Otherwise, the coupe has all the attributes that the sedan does plus it handles better, looks much more aggressive, and is available with a manual tranny for the V6. And the rear seat of the coupe is actually a comfortable place for two people, three in a pinch (because of the deeply bolstered double "buckets".) Head room is limited by the sharply sloping rear glass for taller people but the rear seat is roomy width wise and legs have plenty of room behind the front seats.

Minor advantages of the sedan would be better hwy mileage, better rearward visibility and standard auto dim rear view mirror on upper trim levels. Top of the line coupes will counter with 18" wheels and rear spoiler as standard. V6 6sp does not have ANC. The other trim levels are pretty much feature for feature.

This is my first coupe after a string of 6 sedans and I don't regret going with 2 doors in the least.

I originally started looking for a V6 Auto Sedan. After doing a test drive, reading some reviews, and doing some self reflection I decided on a V6 Manual Coupe.

I had a handfull of coupes and I realized that I rarely ever used the space and almost never have passengers so I really dont need the second set of doors.

I did some research and decided against the VCM equiped V6 Accords. Since the only way to get the V6 without the VCM is to get the coupe with the 6 speed. Made my desision that much easier.

The biggest problem now is waiting. Since there are so few of the manual V6 coupes out there I now have to wait until May for my car to get here. It will be well worth the wait and it gives me time to buy some parts for it.

I say go with the coupe. If you are asking the question of which to go with I'll just assume that you really dont need 4 doors.

I got a kid so I had to get the sedan. If I didn't have any kids, I would still be driving my lovely DC5 that I traded in. Oh how much I miss her...

I finally decided on Polished Metal with Black Leather for $27,300.

$1600 off of MSRP for a car that I had to order and that is so uncommon was a great deal. Had to call 10 dealers and haggle for while to get it done.

Sedan for me. I just like a 4 door more. You get extra room and still have the power I need. I love this car
