Growing up as a kid (I'm old) a 2 door with no post was a hardtop, 2 door with a post a coupe, 4 door with a post a sedan. 4 doors without a post was cool. Most everyone I know goes by this too.




I agree with this. Also the 4 door without a post can obviously be called a hardtop, or a "4 door hardtop" An example would be a Buick Electra 225.

Only problem is that there is no "2 door sedan" in the above definition, which many people would say in a post car, if the rear 1/4 windows roll down its a sedan, if they don't (or they just pop out) like a Volare/Aspen its a coupe, but thats kind of a fine distinction.
