Besides the area where the backseat would be that has the extra bracing there is a lot of extra layers of metal on the door pillar up front. There are 5 layers of stamped steel in the door hinge area that curve up to the strut horns instead of just 3 on the coupe.
The steel used for the rockers(inside,outside and vertical piece in between) are all easliy twice as thick. The floor pan steel is also much thicker.
The extra subframe requires some mounting points to be taken from a 'vert. There are a couple thick steel extensions that fill the space to the "frame rail" as it kicks up for the suspension subframe.
