Default Will it fit in my fronk?

Odd question here. My car is at the shop right now so I cannot measure for myself.

I am curious if a package that is 41" X 10" X 6" will fit in the trunk of a C4S. I am looking to pick up a new toy this weekend. This toy is best left in the trunk while transporting.

I know .. odd question.

Thanks!

That's what she said.


A: For a C4:

Tall - 15 3/4" at rear 9 3/4" at front

Wide - 26 1/2"

Deep - 16 3/4"


Doesn't sound like it.

I suppose I can lay it down in the back seat and cover with a blanket...

Though legal, I just hope I don't get pulled over.

Boy, I thought these types of worries only happen in Canada. That's what I do in Canada, I make sure long guns are trigger locked and in their case. If you don't have a case, pick up a gun sock.

I thought you could carry in the U.S with no issues?

Transporting is always a little touch and go, depending on the state. It is legal to have it but as you say, it has to be locked up.

I've got a soft case that is lockable. I also will not have any 223 / 5.56 in the car, so that helps.

As said above that ain't gonna fit in the frunk of a C4S. Years ago one of the Porsche family claimed they will never make a 911 that cannot carry a set of golf clubs. Guess they forgot that promise or maybe their clubs fold in half!!!

i think they use the back seats with the backs folded down for golf clubs.

No worries carrying them in the back in Texas.
Only thing to worry about is carrying NFA.
I recommend also carrying a copy of the form with tax stamp.
Just don’t stop to shop on the way.

Could you partially disassemble it?

I can probably separate the upper and lower. But the box is what I was concerned about. I like having the original packaging.

As far as the hookers, not sure the GF would appreciate three dead hookers in the frunk (disassembled or otherwise)..
