I'm looking to buy a new car. I am, and always have been, partial to 2 door cars. I can't even wrap my head around getting a 4 door sedan. I just don't think it fits my personality. However, In my search for my new automobile, I've received a bit of flack for wanting another 2dr coupe. One person told me it was time for me to grow up and get a 4 door. Another one asked if I was sure I didn't want to "graduate" to a 4 door.

So now I'm wondering if I am wrong in wanting a 2 door. I'm single. No kids. If I drive other people somewhere it's not that far and I rarely drive, mostly because my car is always so dirty.

So what's your opinion, is there a certain age when people need to "grow up" and get a 4 door car?

and don't even get me started on SUV's, cuz I'm not buying one of those. Just be more room to store all my junk.

I personally much prefer 4 doors, but I have a lanky boyfriend, a step daughter and one on the way so that makes sense really!

Personally I think you should get a Mazda RX-8!!

Bingo. I had a two door sports car up until I got married and had a kid. Then I got a 'grown up' car. I sold the coupe because we were moving across country and I couldn't be bothered with the hassle of moving two cars.

I shall get another coupe sometime though. A Lotus Elise/Exige, or if I'm feeling flush maybe an Aston Martin DB7

I prefer 4 door cars, but that's mostly because I like to be able to just open the back door and put in anything I need to, rather than moving seats and all of that. But IMO, there's nothing at all wrong with having a 2 door car!

I'll take you for a spin, if you ever get around to visiting and if I have bought it by then!

I have more things on my mind than sports cars at the moment, alas.

My wife wants a Yaris or a Mazda 3 as a run around. They are nice little cars, and a little more practical than a motorbike/scooter.
