Makes me more nervous having a tank behind me. I am pretty sure I'm not going to ram anyone and blow up my tank in the 911. However, in most other cars with a rear-mounted tank, I can't rely on the soccer mom behind me to not crush my rear end and send me to a fiery grave.

911s derive their heat from air/exhaust gas heat exchangers that are integrated with the exhaust "headers". The earliest 911s had supplementary heat from gas-fired Webasto heaters. These are uber-rare; I have never seen an installed/functioning unit on a 911. And I agree, THOSE are scary...
