Good evening everyone, just wondering if you had a choice of either above what would you go for? And a potential classic jdm what would be more desirable. Or if anyone who had them both what did they prefer? I'm in a hunt for one. Ek9 looks so good with the clean lines but never been in one.
Kind regards
Billy
 
Havnt had both but a close friend owned a dc5 an drove it countless times.

In my opinion they are very similar in nearly every aspect. the power is progressive and the handling is sharp and very predictable in both vehicles. The torque of the k series is the only noticeable difference to me.

The DC5 would pip it in terms of comfort (obviously die to its being in the next generation of the model) I. E it's generally comfier and there is noticeably less road noise. Basically its a slightly more refined car.

DC5 probably a better car to live with day to day.

EK9: The more special of the two (Imo) with more character, but less all round performance.

If I were to use the car day to day it would be the DC5. If it was a second car. The ek9 for me.
 
Thanks for feedback Ellis. I really want a dc5 but an ek9 seems to be more excited. Looking for one on the for sale section but all sold.
