Doug,
They really are 2 different rides. The Coupe is a more refined touring car. While it is still a real kick,as a closed A/C'd car with power steering it loses some of the visceral feel of the roadster. We're selling one of ours now( a Coupe or Roadster) and when all the debris is cleared from these Dearborn Deuces we'll replace which ever one goes. I ride motorcycles, so if I only could keep one it would probably be the roadster, but I do like the way the Coupe drives on a trip. It also seems to get more miles to the tank. Maybe because of the airflow,but it could be the small block that is required as opposed to a big block which occupies many roadsters.
