Is there room enough in the back for a child seat?

They show two segments with kids in the back. 

If you can put infant/toddler seats in the back, I am going shopping today.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I have always referred to them as factory child safety seats, but yes, move the passenger seat about half way up, and a seat does fit very nicely.

It is much easier to get the seat in and out if you get the Cabriolet.  [thumbsup]
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Nice " Gig " you got there Mags !

Did you like the Turbo 911 ?

Did it make you feel all " Special ? "

Dolph     :)

The turbo was quite fun.   The had a police perimeter set up around the shooting location.  When I first got in the car, they told me not to worry about traffic, speed limits, or stop signs and get used to the power before we started shooting.   [evil]

Those two kids spent a lot of time sitting in the back seat.  They had plenty of room.  I'm not sure how well a grown up would fit, but the kids had no problems.

And IZ  ;D

I had 5 people in my 993 for a very short distance.

4 people in my 996 for a couple hundred miles.  (after a couple years of physcial therapy, the two in the back are almost able to walk normally again.)

Drove this yesterday...

It is very nice.  [evil]
one of my bosses has a Panamera, it's only the 6 but having been a back seat passenger I must give it a  [thumbsup] as a damn nice thing to be driven around in,

i sent Mrs Ducatiz a photo from the dealership in Tysons and she replied "why are you sending this" and of course, I know better so I just said I was looking at cars... I got a call about 1 minute later and all she said was 'don't even think about buying that until you sell 5 motorcycles'

aw man.

here it is...

certainly you're familiar with the saying...

better to ask forgiveness than permission?

What could go wrong? [laugh]

honestly, if there wasn't a 2 month wait on the kid seats and they had them right there in the dealership, i might have just done it.
