Back seats are fine if you're Verne Troyer

Back seats are workable if the passenger straddles the backrest and you roll the seat forward a bit. Females generally prefer to sit sideways, though.

My twin 4yr old daughters fit perfectly back there. Should be a fun summer. I sat in back once....and that was more than enough for me.

I once put 3 adults and 3 50lbs backpacks in my 944. We had finished a 3 day backpack and needed to shuttle back to the start point.

I've found there's a good bit more room back there with the rear seatback removed.

Recently I was driving the 951 in Scottsdale to pick up my girlfriend and her two friends, who were on their spring break doing the Resort-'n'-Spa-in-the-AZ-Sun thing. Her two friends had to sit sideways (and facing one another) in the back. I remember pulling up to the Scottsdale Fashion Mall and getting out of the car in front of the valet stand (to drop them off -- wasn't planning on letting the valet drive it) it was a real sight to behold: three darn good lookin' ladies pouring out of a tiny Porsche. Oh and only one dude: me.

Plenty of times in both my 944's and 928S I had adults in back to include TWO adults in the back at same time.

When just one person I tell them "put your *** on one side and legs on the other. Sitting sideways like this is much less cramped.

When two adults, it just sucks. lol. On one occasion from Daytona Beach back to Orlando wife and I were in the front and another couple in the back. They were not very comfy. lol. I raised up the sunroof and their heads simultaneously lifted up about 3 inches.

Gobogie spent some time back there at the 2004 Fest at the ski lodge. We were having the DD take us to get some food and he never bothered to tell my skinny *** to get in the back so I sat up front. We were all pretty hammered so....I don't think any of us really noticed him back there until we got back.. If only we had a picture.. that would have been one for the record books. good times!!
