Does anyone know the dimensions of the rear trunk; length, width and depth?

I found this online:
The trunk is approximately53 1/2” wide X 16.5” deep and 12” front-to-rear depth.
Sorry, I can't measure mine right now.

Go with Bear's numbers above as a general guide.

But remember - the trunk is not a box. The front is straight, the rear is roughly curved, the trunk tapers inward from top to bottom, both front to rear and side to side, and the latch mechanism protrudes forward from the rear at the top.

I think those measurements are from near the bottom of the trunk.

A lot of space, but not necessarily great for big boxes. I do sometimes miss my C6.

Also, I believe the trunks of convertibles and coupes are shaped slightly differently. Obviously, convertibles don't have latches to snap in a targa top.

Very good point, should have thought of that myself.
