Default How Much Have You Fit Into Your Porsche?(pics)

These pictures are from the beginning of this school year when i went off to college. The trunk is completely full, the passenger seat is completely full to the top. Even the crevices from the folded down back seat are full! When driving i was really freaking out about the fact that i could not see to my right and behind me. it made lane changing fun!

If you can tell the back is sagging and if you look in the passenger window you can see just how high my crap goes to!

Your car looks like mine did when I moved my then girlfriend, now wife, into a house we were renting. What's more, I had the passenger seat out so the pile of stuff went from floor to ceiling, front to back.

Done the complete set and spare tires thing too.

Probably why my hatch seems to be delaminating now.

I did something like that. I don't have pics, but lane changing was scary. On a side, how many pppl, including driver, have you been able to stuff in the car? My record is 6. I didn't go.

I fit a full sheet of 1/2" sheet rock in a couple weekends ago and closed the hatch......Of course I cut it in half first, but it was a full sheet.

I have my 4 race tires/wheels, a jack cooler and chair every race weekend. I love the Miata guys who need to trailer their tires.

-1 21" mountain bike, wheel off
-2 leather 944 seats won on eBay
-My old sport seats plus the stripped, unfolded backseat.
-Stringtrimmer
-3 industrial garbage bags of recyclable aluminum cans
-Shyteloads of ex-girlfriendius shoppingus-detritus (not all at once)

At another point in time, I fit a 5'6" kid and a 6'4" kid in the backseat, with my 6'1" self and a 6'4" friend up front. And we drove around my HS campus with the sunroof on.

8 boxes of copy paper (the standard big box that holds like 12 packages of 500 or so sheets of paper).

There was room for more in my car, just not at the office I was taking it all to

I fit 40 boxed mop handles (industrial ones)into the rear hatch. Basically I laid the down the backseat, shoved them in....They were packed up tight to the windshield.The back hatch glass was level with the top of my roof and i cycle strapped it down to hold the handles in and keep the hatch from bouncing.

Another time I put 10 bags of pre mixed horse feed into my car. Three on the front seat and seven in the back hatch. Thats about 800 lbs if you count me too.
