Default I couldn't believe my eyes!

I was in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl this past week (where SC430's are like chevrolets!) and as I was coming out of the hotel I did a double-take. I saw a SC430 with the top down and two people in front and two in the back! The folks in the back appeared to be sitting normally and of normal size!

That takes guts!

Was there a bar in the hotel and how many did you chug. Sorry, this seems too impossible to believe. Sometimes little people look normal sized when sitting. Maybe the car had interior mods done. Maybe it was.....I can't thinkof anything else that would make sense. I still can't believe it.

Yup, I was going to look for this pic too

They have all 4 of the lead characters in Mean Girls in the SC430 too, but of course that's just for a shoot . . .

well, did they get out of teh car after taking the pic?

any way, i really can't see how it could be comfortable having 4 people in there. i am 5'7", and my wife is just 5". even with the two of us sitting comfortably inside the car, i don't see any legroom in the back already

I went to the NY Auto Show last night and most of the time there was more than 2, usually 4 and once 5 people in the SC on display. I like that new red color (but I still love my purple!)

I'm 5' - 1/4" and the driver's seat is pulled up so there is plenty of leg room for the person sitting behind me but those vertical seats are extremely uncomfortable. The only time I sit back there is when I'm vacuuming the back or cleaning the windows. It wouldn't be too bad if the seats were inclined.

I like that picture. I haven't come across a SC430 with passengers in the back seats yet.
