baby seats

ok for those of you with babies....can you fit a car seat into the back good and is your kid comfortable back there?? because i have been back and forth on the idea of what to do with my car in a few years.....i have considered getting a 4 door car like a wrx before we have a kid....but then i have considered just keeping my camaro and paying it off and doing twin turbo route and of course all the other upgrades you can do, suspension,brakes,gearing,lighter wheels and sticky tires.....but like i said not sure how kid friendly our cars are.

I don't know if rear-facing would fit, but forward facing would probably work.

Most dealers that I have dealt with in the past don't mind if you put the car seat in to check the fit. That was important to me when my daughter was little.

My daughter is 4 and on a booster seat. Fits fine, but I keep the passenger seat pretty far up so she doesn't scuff the back of the seat with her shoes. The other day she had her boots on and she says to me "Daddy, I am going to take my boots off so I can keep mommy's seat clean", NOW she gets it .
Our toddler seat was huge, I am sure it would fit though.

My son's 12, loves our Camaro, and fits fine as long as the seats aren't back all the way.

I have 2 car seats in the back of my 2010 both forward facing and when my second daughter was born in Nov 2009 she was rear facing no issues my kids love it.

car seat and booster

Had the 7 year old in the back since the car was new in 2009...now he is in a booster seat and his little sister is in a car seat behind me. I do have to move the seat up just a bit.

Been very kid friendly from the start.

I fit my recaro car seat in my friends camaro once. I don't see how it would if worked rear facing, but perhaps a bucket seat would work. The recaro is one of the bigger, although more badass, car seats out there.

I have had a car seat in the back of my car since I bought it in 2009. I leave it in my car even when I race just so I can say it's a true street car.
