cargo space
Does anyone have any numbers or real world experiences with the cargo space in a c6, both very and coupe? the numbers i'm finding say there is the same space in the c6 vert as in the c4 vert. now i know i can fit a lot more into my c4 vert than you would think, but i thought the c6 would definitely have more space. does anyone have any pics inside the trunck with the top up and top down? i'm leaning towards getting a c6 vert a daily driver/weekend tripper, but i don't want to get it and wish i had more space.

In the event you are not (
), have owned C4, 5, and 6 convertibles. The C5 had a bit more useful space...top up or down...the C6 is limited in the top down mode. The C4 doesn't merit a word.However, why don't you simply visit a dealership and check for yourself?

IIRC, a C6 Coupe is said to have twice the trunk capacity of a C6 vert.
You need to use soft duffels to take max advantage of the odd-shaped space, but we get a TON of stuff into our coupe.
Numbers off the 'net:
C4 Coupe/Vert- 13/7 cuft
C5 Coupe/Vert- 25/14 cuft
C6 Coupe/Vert- 22/11 cuft
EDITED:
C4 Coupe/Vert numbers were reversed in my original post, now corrected.

I must presume you're joking; the C4 didn't even have a trunk.
In the event you are not ( ), have owned C4, 5, and 6 convertibles. The C5 had a bit more useful space...top up or down...the C6 is limited in the top down mode. The C4 doesn't merit a word.
However, why don't you simply visit a dealership and check for yourself?

and if you're saying there is no cargo space in a c4, i will presume you are joking.

Well, the four C4s I owned - '89, '91, '94, '95 - I bought because they DID have a trunk.... more than 500,000 miles in C4s....

I'm gonna say the '05 can hold at least 10 toasters more that the '11. Well, 2 slice, not 4 slice toasters.
What the heck did I just say?
