the back seat is for the bitches...


ok, im joking... seriously ladies, im kidding....



compare it to a 4th gen is about the best i can say, its not going to have crap tons of leg room i can guarantee you that. there's a reason its listed as a 2+2 seater and not a 4 seater

but since ur 5'10", just have someone else drive and you can sit in back...lol

Wife wants to know if you'll be at Indy and if so, what will you be wearing?
A back seat only a 9 year old could love. Friends? You don't need no stinkin friends, they'll just barf in your floorboard and spill their soda on your seat.

2+2's are generally not very comfortable in the back seat. It's good to put your stuff and maybe a kid. Will they fit? Yea.. will they be like a pretzel and crying to get out every 15 mins? Aye.

I had 3 people in the back for about 3.5 hours drive to the beach with my 78. It was living hell.

Who cares? You are driving. I used to stuff people in the back of my 77 and 80 Camaros.

If you want Comfort for rear get Malibu or Cobalt sedans.

That's what I always said. I buy the car for MY comfort, no one else. If they don't wanna ride, they can drive their own car.

I've always brought adults in my Camaro's. But never for LONG rides. Mostly under 1.5 hours. If not less than 45 mins 80% of the time.

I managed to stuff... 8 people in my '82 Camaro back in High School. LOL

Me driving, 2 in the passengers seat, 2 in each of the rear seats and one in the trunk. haha That was great.

I'm sure I could have gotten at least one more in the trunk if we'd had to.

Probably won't be too comfy...

You can always opt for a G8 if you want Camaro-like performance in a sedan.

I'm buying this car for me, and me alone. My girl will ride passenger, but anyone else who wants to ride in back will do so at their own risk, and without so much as a peep of complaint.

The back seat is for the dog or the friend acting like one.
