I've fit some stuff in the 951, but never enough where I coudln't close the hatch (sets of wheels, camping supplies for 944fest, two 944 seats).

I fit the large rolling bottom half of my toolbox in the back of my 951....of course with it hanging out. It was so heavy the car rode on the bumb stops for 2 miles until the weight blew out a rear tire. Luckily I was only moving it 2.2 miles away.

I had just painted the wheels so none of them were stacked. I had two tires side by side and a front wheel standing sideways in front of them where the passenger seat was.

One trip - rear seats down, back absolutely full of pergo flooring.

Another trip - rear seats down, back absolutely full of tile, passenger seat had all the adhesive and grout. I really felt the weight on that trip. Took a long time to load that one up and find a way to get everything to fit.

a 10 pack of 2x4" drop ceiling tiles, 6 bags of mulch, 4 gallons of paint, two bags of landscaping rocks, dropcloths/rollers/trays/etc and a shovel. Never call your gardening-oriented mother from Home Depot and ask if you can bring anything over for her.

lol that is a great picture. Ive said it before and ill say it again, the 944 is the El Camino of Porsche's.

I have done a few college moves with the rear completely packed with stuff. And like Van i did a few recycling runs to the supermarket with 4 garbage bags full of empty beer cans.

How'd they get empty in the first place.........?



The lack of space for track stuff caused the building of a track trailer. Who wants to share the cabin with hoosiers?

Wow... The most I've had was a big cooler, tent, camping chairs, BBQ, 3 DH bikes on the roof, 24 pack, and 4 ppl inside.
