Which looks Better AE86 Corolla GTS Hatchback or The Coupe?

Which One has better Balance For Drifting? Or there is no Difference?

Please let me know I have a Week To figure it out Which one I want!

Hatchback, Definitely. A clean and well kept AE86 hatchback still looks contemporary. The coupe taillights are bland and look to dated. Just my 2.3456 cents.

they're both pretty sexy done up right.

I couldn't make up my mind either so I'm gonna end up having both unless someone gives me a GOOD offer on the coupe. That is after I get the hatch.

IMO ae86 coupes are pretty ugly...... but they do perform better (better body rigidity and weigh less)

Pick the one with the least amount of rust. No major difference b/w the two. Stock for stock the coupe is slightly more rigid and 40 lbs lighter, however, the liftback can carry more.

the hatch r harder to find and its a lot nicer lookin the the coop.. just my 2cent

Hachi Slow what do you mean it can carry more? What do you guys mean about rigid?

VladImpaler · 02-15-2005, 09:47 AM

^^^He means the hatchback has more cargo room and the body is stiffer and can handle more twisting and such....

i like the coupe personally coz no one can make it like Takumi's car!

DRIFTASSAULT · 02-15-2005, 03:53 PM

Take a look at the N2 ae86s. they are all crazy looking, coupe or hatch. The SS works coupe looks just as bad ass as the kms hatch....
thats my 2 centz

What the Heck is DriftAssult talking about?

N2. A all Japan AE86 series from back in the day. Its still going on now but its just mainly for fun rather than hardcore cometition. Obviously you didn't watch Keiichi Tsyuchia's retirement video by bestmotoring. I suggest you do. The N2 AE86s are probably the fastest corrolas in the world. (on the track) They have laptimes that come very close or mach some of the fastest turbo cars, on a tighter track of coarse. eg: Tsukuba circuit. If you go on club4ag you can find the engine specs of the TRD N2 ae86.
