It's interesting! The reason is that, even though the wheel base is the same across coupe/sedan/ti, the sedan and ti cabins start slightly more forward on the car. I imagine it's to make the most use of space, the sedan needing extra doors and bigger back seat. Then, they probably reused it with the ti to help make up for the shorter rear end.
