Default Does the sedan give up 1 sq. ft rear seating compared to the avant?

I've made up my mind to have my 2nd car a tip (have a 5-sp NSX), but was re-considering the sedan over an avant because I think it has the best lines until I noticed that besides the loss of storage space, the car has 38 sq.ft compared to the avant's 39 sq.ft rear space. Has anyone done a comparison of rear seat comfort, avant vs sedan? I'm trading in my A6,I figured the avant would be a compromise, but yearn for the sedan's shape. Anyone wish they went for the avant instead? Is the sedan's trunk that poor compared to the avant? I loved the A6's trunk and rear seating but cannot drive a "boat" even if it's a 2.7T Just no fun in corners Help

Default I don't think that extra square foot is really "useable" space.....

...I doubt it's legroom as my S4 Avant is just as tight as my A4 sedan was in the rear seat area.

I think the seat is slightly more upright in the Avant. - not noticeable.
