Best shape for a car? - 01-25-2006, 02:35 PM

I have to go for the sedan.

In my opinion it's the best solution for style and practicality. It has four doors so you don't have to be an acrobat if you wan't enter to the backseats. It has a classical shape that has a clear front, middle and back. The equivalent hatchback versions have too much shape stacked to the back. I don't need estates big trunk, they tend to cool/warm slower, generate more noise and have less robust body.

I have to go for the "Sedan". Although I love coupés, I just have my heart closer to sedans. A fast sedan ala RS4, M5, S8 or 65 AMG is the way to go for me

I voted for the sedan. IMO, sedans have the clearest shape of all. They are classy and stylish. A fast on (more than 200HP) german one, would be great for my style.

I voted for SUV. There is nothing other than a big phat SUV on 22s/24s that can make my heart skip a beat.

Coupes are much nicer but the majority of cars I will own will probably be Sedan's. I dont know what to vote.

Coupe for me by far, with sedan just behind unless you count open tops like the Lotus Elise and Ariel Atom 2, Radicals, etc.

Sedans I love 'em.
But also like coupes, SUV.
Just wish for another true kompact sedan (like the 2002).
