ya i love the hb but i was thinking since the coupe is a bit on the heavy side would it grip the road better like around corners and at launch

the coupe, it looks better, less girly. plus the things I can do with my coupe that my friends with similar setups can't do in a hatch. better handling more stability on corners at full speed.

that means he would have to buy a japanese spec nissan, because he wont find any domestic car thats affordable with good suspension.
buy a German car, great handling on all brands
