Honda Accord sedan or coupe? - 1

Would you rather get a 2010 Honda accord coupe or a 2012 Honda accord SE and why

I've owned a 2000 Coupe, 90 Sedan, my parents own a 2001 Sedan, and I test drove both the sedan and coupe in 2012.

You only specified the SE trim, but both come in several versions and engines, so you'll have to see which you prefer there. In any case, the sedan will be more practical and comfortable for back seat passengers, and the coupe will have a bit more style. With the Accords, I also noticed that the coupe tends to have a stiffer, slightly sportier suspension, while the sedan tends to be more cruise oriented. So if you like a softer ride, you'll probably prefer the sedan, but if you like a more solid, nimble feeling car, especially in corners, you'll likely prefer the coupe. Insurance will likely be a little higher on the coupe.

As for what I'd pick. Between the two, it would be the coupe, but I found there are other cars I prefer over either, such as the first gen Acura TSX (2004-2008) as it felt like a more nimble, sportier Accord.

In general, however, I didn't personally care for the most recent Accords, especially compared to the late 90s/early 2000 versions, as they've now gotten much bigger and less sporty. And while I loved my 2000 Accord Coupe (which also never left me stranded in nearly 250K miles), I decided not to buy a new Accord when the time came, even though that's what I looked at first. But I'm kind of a driving enthusiast and like sporty, nimble cars, particularly with manual transmissions, so that's just me. (If you're curious I bought a Mazda for my commuter car. I don't know if it will last nearly as long as the Hondas, but I do like how it drives so far).

So, do you want a somewhat less practical car with a more buttoned down suspension for occasional fun in corners, or do you want a more practical, slightly more comfortable car that will roll a bit in twisting roads? And this is assuming they're both well-maintained and in the same condition.
