Some of you guys seriously bought a 996 for a family car?? 
The 996 is probably one of the most cramped, uncomfortable, one-dimensional sports cars out there.
I feel like Im wedged into a sardine can when Im in mine, although a very stylish one. I couldnt imagine trying to get a car seat in and out of the back.
Maybe I need my T-level checked?

BTW - I don't think any one of kid ourselves it's a family sedan or a SUV.
But there's NOTHING wrong with people who choose to enjoy it with their families.
And if you have NOTHING valuable to add to this thread that is meant for people to discuss car seats - except to think 'you're too cool' - stop posting on this thread.

You must be both tall and fat. And really insecure.

Well said.
99% of the time i'm alone in my car driving back and forth to work etc.
when we go out as a family we use my wifes bigger car however sometimes we go out in mine and having the option of adding a car seat in the back is extremly useful.
I don't think anyone buys these as a family car but life happens and sometimes you need to get your kids in the back!

The 996 is a quite spacious and comfortable compared to other sports cars. I've never considered it to be uncomfortable - I've even taken it on 600 mile road trips and still feel refreshed when done.
Plus as I said before, there's a reason those back seats exist!

And while we we 2 very capable family type cars I still like to take my 5 year old daughter out on the 996.

Very roomy is not the words I would use to describe a 996. I guess Im just used to pickups. Great car for "special" trips. Not a family car, not a DD. JMHO. No offense to anyone.

And by the way, if you have to say "no offense" then you are well aware you are offending.

Anyone know when it's safe/legal to let the kids ride in the back seat with the standard seatbelt? It's such a small seat that my 6 year old fits but I think it's still technically against the law. If it's legal, is it safe?
