As someone who has put a child seat in both a 951 and a 911......don't even try. Seriously, if I wanted to go for a ride in the 951 with my family, I had to put the passenger seat almost all the way forward to fit the child seat, which of course put my wife's knees in the dash. Needless to say, I drove alone quite a bit. That was part of my motivation for trading it for the 540/6, I wanted a fun car that would carry the family.

In KS, your kid has to be in a baby seat-child seat-booster until 8 years old. Those damn seats take up more room than the kid. Without a child seat, a 951 or 911 back seat is perfect for kids. Of course, you can leave the seat at home, but around here that carries some hefty fines. Not to mention the extra risk it constitutes to your child.
