and then you would only be getting the output of two woofers - but in half the space...

when asked a question like this, I resort to my best car audio tool - fiberglass!

1. Remove trunk hatch
2. Install speakers
3. Proceed to blast the neighborhood like an ice cream van on crack

2x the power handeling in the same air space

lower f3

tighter more accurate bass

use less space
my experience anyway

I'm a bit unsure of what you mean by this one - you need double the power b/c you have double the woofers to run, but I don't see how this method would increase the mechanical or thermal power handling of a woofer.

I don't know THAT much about iso mounting because it's the dinosaur of car audio - sort of, so could you explain that one?

this is true, but something tells me that the average guy wanting 4 subs is not willing to sacrifice half of his woofer's displacement to gain some accuracy....

plus, subs today sound good enough (if you choose the right ones) and work in such small boxes that iso mounting is a thing of the past

but iso is taking the "easy" way out
