Default Good Baby and toddler stroller for 996 Found

I know some of you are in the same boat I am with a small child or infant and needing car seats and strollers. Finding a stroller that will accomadate a baby to toddler and fold small enough to store in the 911 isn't easy. I found ONE. It is called the Quinny Zapp. They claim it is the smallest folding stroller in the world. Quinny is a British company with no official distributor in the States from what I can tell but you can buy the strollers on ebay in the US. I bought mine from a seller in NJ new and everything was fine. Price was around $200 delivered. The stroller is very high quality and has very impressive engineering. It fits perfectly in the trunk when folded in my 02 C2 Cab. It may not fit in a C4 but I don't know as I haven't tried. Just thought I'd pass that on since I had to do my own searching for car seats and strollers.

We just bought the new version of the Quinny Zapp for my 997 Cab S. I have to tell you although it fits in the trunk, I am absolutely annoyed with it. The problem with the Zapp is that it does not recline and my son's head would BOB downwards when he is sleeping. Poor kid looks horribly uncomfortable. I'm ready to look for a diff stroller.

Does anyone know if the Bugaboo Bee stroller fits in the Porsche trunk?

Do you have the Porsche factory passenger deactivation device installed?

I will only let my two year old rides in my Porsche's front seat with the passenger side air bag disabled. I still can't find a infant seat small enough to fit in the back seat of the 911.

The above link for the Quinny is exactly as the one I have. As for the child seat, I'm using a Recaro Young Sport in the rear seat. It's tight for an adult passenger since the front seat has to be moved forward, but gets the job done for the short Sunday drives. If anyone else has a better solution I'd be interested to know.

LOL, I have a couple of boys, and I have learned very quickly that if they are asleep....they are comfortable. Don't worry about that...Winston, they'll let you know if the are uncomfortable.

Like Disco suggested, $15 unbrella stroller worked for me in my other cars.
