Brought the C4S to the local Wal-Mart today for office supples. Besides ***, this thing can haul a bunch of toilet paper, Kleenex, and cleaning supplies.



You guys do anything "crazy" with your Pcar?

Pack my wife, 4 year old twins and luggage for weekend get-a-ways all the time. You just have to adopt a minimalist approach :-)

Love making Costco runs in my 4S. So far I've always been able to get everything in the front trunk, even when the bill exceeds $100. To think I could be bringing my family of four along with me makes is a reminder of the immense practicality of these cars.

For the record: you can carry 120lbs of bagged dog food in the trunk. And 90 lbs of dog in the rear seat. And 120 lbs of wife in the passenger seat. Did seem to run a little warmer than usual but hey......

I take my C4S to Walmart for some groceries from time-to-time.

Did you notice the other Porsche Cab just a few parking spaces on your left?

The first day i owned it and let me tell you the limit is 2 two liter coke bottles and a bag of chips. If you are driving solo a few bags in the front seat as well, but the Porsche makes a much more practical grocery getter. I pack my family into the 911 every weekend and we use it as the family car.

i haul my son around to his baseball games in mine all the time.

he's a catcher so he has to use a huge gear bag. i drop the top on the cab, put down the rear seats, and carefully place the bag in the back - it just barely fits.

it's funny when we leave games and we're walking out to the car, you know people are thinking that there's no way a bag that big is going to fit in that little 911. we get some strange looks while we're loading it all up - but it always fits.

i've had people bust my chops more than once, so i always joke that with the top and rear seats down the car double as a short-bed pickup truck

i took home a coffee table in my 996 cab.

be careful with the leather and vinyl. sharp things can cut the interior. groceries is nothing!
