I like the weight and structural rigidity advantage of the coupe. the reason I got rid of the fastback is not because it was a rust bucket or anything but it was a 17 yr old buffalo car and it showed underneath. I decided to spend the extra money and effort to get a virgin southern shell because ive had some VERY shitty experiences with rust in the past. also I have had 3 hatch’s and I was ready to change it up a bit.
