Default Baby on the way.

Baby on the way need recommendations for car seat/strollers.

Has anyone retrofitted a base for the back of a GT3... worst case he has to be able to get in the back of the 964.

So many options on the market. Figured the sports car minded folks on this site will have some valuable onsite.

dude as crazy as i am, i dont put kids with baby seat (the basket type) in the back, you will break your back get the in and out
when kid is bigger and can get in and out themselves, i used various recaro baby seats that fit front and or back.

Congrats!

No way to safely secure a child seat in the back of a 997-2 GT car. They use different sheet metal there than standard 911s.

My RSA did not have threaded seat belt holes in the rear, I'm sure the ROW RS doesn't either.

Wait till your kid is 4+ and put him/her in a booster in the front.

Rear facing in the front with the airbag off is fine.
No stroller that fits the 997 frunk is any good until baby can support his/her head.
Then get a Pockit. I used mine today. Fits in overhead bin luggage too.
