We used my 86.5 as a family hauler quite often when the kids were smaller. They loved the rear seats that wrapped around them and having their own AC! Never worried about only having lap belts and never tried putting a car seat in. Now that they are teens, not so thrilled about the 928 back seats.

It is certainly true that there is a size limit and that leg room behind the driver may be an issue. But, I've transported folks that are ... girth-deficient in the rear seats on multi-hour trips with no complaints at all.

They are not torture chambers. They are, though, only useful for kids or skinny hot chicks.

Agree with Worf. My wife is 4'11" and weighs less than our BIG black lab. She doesn't mind riding in the back on the passenger side if the front seat is moved up a bit (so front and rear passenger share the knee bending). But most of the time my son sits in the back and loves it back there. We hang an iPad over the front passenger seat so he can watch "Cars". The key is getting the right child seat. I bought a Sunshine Kids/Radian XL from another 928 owner. This seat is extremely well made, will accommodate our son as he grows to the point when he no longer needs a seat, and it FITS PERFECTLY.
