Coupe, has nothing to do with seating. It has to do with teh window and roof line. A Coupe has an A pillar and a C pillar. A sedan, whether 2 door or 4 door, also has a b PILLAR. That is the difference, bank it.

Sorry, PetesPonies while you are mostly correct, the one main difference is a coupe has 2 doors. If they don't have a b-post, they are hardtops. If they have a b-post they are "post coupes"

Sure, no B pillar is a hardtop. But with a B pillar they are sedans. As a retired Auto Instructor, you want to discuss this technically?

No sorry to you. a B pillar makes it a sedan. A Coupe will have only an A and C pillar.

You know those silly Russians. They are probably trying to add two more side doors to a coupe. Silly them!

It’s a thousand kilometers from Ukraine to Moscow so hopefully his troops don’t have to walk the whole way

Sounds like a civil war within the military, not a military coup against Putin. But, very confusing.

The real question is if this is some head fake by Putin and this guy to surprise the Ukrainians with a different, surprise flank attack. If I were Ukraine, I would mount my own new attack on a new front and force the Russians to react and disrupt their plans regardless.
Another thing that is so disingenuous about Putin and the Russians is a) the Ukraine did not mount an attack on Russia nor was threatening to do so (Russia was the aggressor here) and b) Russia keeps trying to label the Ukrainians as fascists and Nazis yet there is no evidence to warrant such assertions.
I don’t know if this is a real, genuine coup attempt or not, but if there is division between the Russian people and troops over this war that is now dragging on and killing hundreds of thousands of people needlessly, I could see some portion of the Russian military breaking away and supporting this coup. Will it be enough? Who knows.
All we can hope for is whoever has control over nukes they don’t use them. If that happens, Pandora’s box is opened.

I’ve been wondering if it is not a headfake of a different type.
I don’t believe Putin can win his Ukrainian War. He might not lose, but he can’t win. He’s stuck but he can’t get out without losing face and he can’t explain to the Russian people why he’s killed 10’s of thousands of their sons for nothing. Soooooo…….he needs a legitimate looking excuse to quit. This insurrection would fit that legitimate looking excuse, perfectly.

Nah we need people to wake up. Obama led a coup in Ukraine in 2014, installed Biolabs on the Russian border, and the Nazi Asov battalion bombed the sh!t out of Donbass. Ukraine is not the good guys here. I'm not defending Putin, only stating facts.

Long story short: Putin made a mistake a lot of empires throughout history have made, and he let a mercenary group get too big. Wagner PMC has probably 50,000 men, some of them recruited from Russian prisons - and they are loyal to Prighozin, not Russia.
Prighozin's been acting like General George Patton on social media - he even Stole His Look - and has been building a cult of personality on the Internet for awhile.
He pulled his troops out of Bakhmut, the bloodiest battle in the war, a couple weeks ago...which incidentally, pulled them off the line right as Ukraine was launching its big counter-offensive. Great timing, huh?
Prighozin's claiming the Russians bombed one of his camps and killed 2,000 of his Wagner mercenaries. I'm 99% certain he's lying. Lying is what Prighozin does. He's the master of lies and disinformation; he made much of his fortune operating the "Internet Research Agency", that troll farm that spread so much disinformation before the 2016 election. (Prighozin bragged about that just a couple months ago.)
But this gave him the pretext he needed to march on Moscow, to confront those treacherous generals who ordered that unprovoked airstrike on his men. His troops are now rolling right up the M4 between Rostov-on-Don and Moscow...and there are very, very few troops left in Russia; they've stripped it to the bone. Their army is all on the Ukrainian front. Behind where Wagner is.
So now there's as many as 50,000 mercenaries loyal to Prighozin betwen the Russian regular military on the Ukrainian front, and Moscow. And in Russia, all roads lead to Moscow. He who controls Moscow, controls Russia.
If I was Putin, I'd be very, very concerned. Prighozin is pulling a Julius Caesar.

Update: it looks like Wagner Group has reached Yelets. They've gotten about 2/3's of the way from the Ukrainian border up the M4 to Moscow now.
Big old race now. Can Putin put together enough troops fast enough to stop Wagner?
Irony for ya: Prighozin, who is the master of lies and disinformation...now looks like he's trying to topple Putin by telling the truth. He's blaring all over social media to as many of the Russian people he can reach that the whole war is a lie, that their sons have been dying for no reason, and that there are no Nazis in Ukraine. (The whole was was ostensibly launched to "de-Nazify" Ukraine, I do not kid.)
