Thre is no real difference in temperature for the driver in a sedan vs a wagon, although that will not be true for passengers, especially those way back in the 3rd seat.
Lack of humidity will help you cool your car in CA. My diesel pickup cools great at 100* in Montana but it sucks at 90* in Florida.
