Coupes or Fastbacks?...very contraversial, may have been covered - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Akuma Trueno · 03-31-2004, 07:07 PM

I know, I own a S13 hatch and a S14 turbo, I was just being funny!

Perhaps you can read my earlier post in this same thread. HAR HAR HAR

See you at Drift Day bro...

Most hatches look like crap. Most coupes look average. But they can both be made to look good.

8kred · 04-02-2004, 02:21 PM

i like the hatch but everybody's got one. coupes are more rare to come by.....

TheSnail · 04-03-2004, 01:57 AM

Is 8kred supossed to be Eckard? I was just wondering, because I used to work for Eckard and they ar all a bunch of cum bubbles in a fags ass. God I hate them. bluu...

nightwalker · 04-03-2004, 03:20 AM

Demik · 04-03-2004, 11:00 AM

what the fuck are you talking about? i just came on board a month ago.....

TheSnail · 04-05-2004, 11:17 PM

Oh thats right they dont have Eckard on the west coast. 8kred, dont pay no attention, its not you, its a drug store. Those bastards...

boostedhotness · 04-06-2004, 12:20 AM

the coulpe is by far the way to go! i think the fastback looks like a ford probe. possibly the biggest piece of crap ever made. the coupe with the silvia front end is my favorite. i plan on having mine for a very long time to come..

Akuma Trueno · 04-06-2004, 09:34 AM

I can fit a lot of tires in my hatchback, way more than I can in the 14. But the 14 uses way more tires. Hmmm.
HaHa

GotBoost? · 05-04-2004, 03:19 PM

It's all about the Coupe!

**ThatGuy** · 05-12-2004, 03:44 PM

Seems like everyone has a Fastback around where I live, so I bought a coupe. I like them both, and will probably buy a FB someday too. But for now I say Coupe is the only way to travel.

Hey now, watch what you say about my first two cars. They do look a lot like the S13 FB tho, and no, I wouldn't say they're anywhere near the car that the 240SX is. Coupe all the way IMO.

nlzmo400r · 01-05-2005, 10:49 AM

well let me lay it out for you guys:

FB w/ Kouki tails-- 10/10
Coupe w/silvia front-- 10/10

The fastbacks to me have a more modern look (nice set of dt05r and kouki tails)
The coupes look more old school (sweet set of deep dish 15" meshies and silvia front)

I like both

carlos9984 · 01-05-2005, 06:33 PM

coupe

SpdElemts · 01-05-2005, 09:08 PM

anyone ever noticed that the break lights on the coupes kinda look like the lexus sc300/400's? I dont know its just something that i think about everytime i see a SC in front of me.

mr_240sx · 02-19-2005, 10:18 PM

i drive a fastback right now!
i wouldnt mind getting a coupe with an s13 conversion!

s13irdie2 · 02-20-2005, 03:15 PM

fastback

sepulchral · 02-20-2005, 05:54 PM

coupes look like old model preludes!

Tygma · 02-20-2005, 06:23 PM

fastbacks look like probes!

drewtoes · 02-21-2005, 03:15 PM

i like both. i would want to own a coupe and a fastback

WILDACEX187 · 03-10-2006, 09:50 PM

wingless coupe with a silvia front and some 16's and factory aero

ALTRNTV · 03-10-2006, 09:56 PM

Check my sig.

jobestudios · 03-10-2006, 10:35 PM

i made that/\ sig, so Imma have to agree. Cept change the front to silvia

603240sx · 03-13-2006, 08:24 AM

i love the fastbacks, but the coupe is lighter and its a little stiffer

*!Zar!* · 03-13-2006, 09:57 AM

El Coupè~ ftw

Chasmoore04 · 03-13-2006, 12:23 PM

I like both, the wingless coupe is pretty.

The fastback I have in mind is good looking too.

Most s chassis look good except kouki s14

8 with the pass seat, 11 w/o the seat.

I like the lines of the coupe better. I have seen some REALLY nice FBs, but they have to be modified for me to like them.

+1 for coupe love

Cloud9 · 03-19-2006, 09:52 AM

Hatchbacks all the way, ive owned 2 and looking for a third i just cant drive a coupe.

3 Era · 03-19-2006, 10:40 AM

I love the fastbacks, always have. The lines, the overall look, oooo and Kouki taillights

Coupes have been growing on me though, I'm thinking about picking one up as a second car (if I can find one).

As for seeing fastbacks more than coupes, I don't ever see either one. I have the only 240 in my area that I know of.
