I think you meant B pillar. The A and C pillars are in the exact same place in the coupe, sedan and wagon.

But yes, the B pillar being closer to the center means a slightly stiffer overall structure. If I had to do it again (still have my '99 RS) I'd have gotten an '00 or '01. The MAP-based ecu is much happier with intakes than the fragile MAF sensors and the large doors are a PITA for entry-exit. The only positive to the coupes, IMO, is the lack of a pillar in your peripheral vision (if you're really tall).
