It depends on which generation of Coupe you are referring to. Only the
first gen. Coupe has Mitsu underpinnings. The latter ones are Hyundai
designed including the 2 litre Beta engine but the 1.8 litre engine is
still Mitsu based. I would say go for the Coupe if you want the looks,
interior and flash appeal and the Putra if you want the performance..

Why not EG Civic Coupe just like F&F? Plonk in 2.2 Vtec and bolt on turbo,
you basically can have both Putra and Coupe for breakfast. Smile

What llsaw said is right on the money. as for Honda, the only good honda
are the 80`s honda. 90`s honda looks like crap. the 2000 hondas looks
like a goddamn minivans. (my dream movie=running amok, smashing hondas)

Which kinda reminds me... I`m currently looking for the Civic AT or the
Civic mayat. It must be accident free and i dont care if the engine bay
turned to "reban ayam" just as long as the chasis 90% rust free. email me.

I`ll pay cash.
