One of the major reasons for going with the A6 2.7T over a 530i for me was the difference in back seat room. Various people had complained about being stuck in the back of my 97 A4, and I wanted to shut them up.

Over the last couple of days, I played tour guide for my sister, her rather large boyfriend (about 6' 3", 260+ lbs.), and his fairly tall (5' 10"ish) sister. We drove all over the Oregon countryside, along the coast, through the mountains, through the Gorge, etc., and everyone was a bunch of happy campers. I almost started to get sick of them telling me what a nice ride they were getting, and how comfy they were. For the record, the large guy (bigger than me, and I'm 6' 3" and 220), sat in the back seat the whole time, and was happy to do so (especially with his own heated seat). :-)

I'm quite certain I couldn't have pulled this off sticking everyone in a 530....

Your giant guest would have been miserable in the back seat of the 530i

for 4 in the 4.2, 5 is a little cramped and have no head rest or 3 point seatbelt for fifth wheel in the back!
