CougarTim ◊ 2008-02-03 02:10	I suppose that depends on how you define coupe. Z-7 designates this unique body style, but the Zephyr was also available as a much plainer-looking 2-door sedan, which you could probably call a coupe.

The Fairmont also had a more upscale coupe called the Futura... which later also applied to upscale sedans and wagons, I believe.
