Kinja'd!!!

it has 116000 kms, don't know if it's an auto or manual. 6500$cnd

This is tempting me. it's close(ish) less than 100kms away from me

From the ad:

Voiture en tres bonne condition, alternateur neuf,tune-up fait printemps,bougies,fils,cap-rotor ,freins neufs,batterie neuve,alternateur neuf, pneus neufs (3000KMS)

translation: good condition, new alternator, tune up done this spring, new spark plugs, new wires, cap, brakes, battery, tires have 3000 kms on them.

Someone talk me out of this, and can anyone tell me if i can fit a booster seat(child seat) and a rear facing baby seat in the back since 2 +2??

If it has a back seat, then it can most likely fit that.

We easily fit a kid and booster seat in this..

So I'm pretty sure you'll be fine.

From what I remember we managed to fit my father in a back seat during a test drive of one (Poor guy.) He's shorter and thinner than I am but if you could do that you should be able to fit a baby seat in.

You could fit a period correct child seat in the back. A modern rear facing one? no freaking way...not unless you and your passenger have no legs. Booster seat would probably fit, though I'm not sure it would be necessary, the +2 seats seem like they were designed for 50% sized people in the first place.

We've had a couple of these in the family. If you plan to DD one, be warned: they can smell fear. The car's computers (all of them) will collectively decide that instead of worrying about being late for work, you really should be wondering what that new smokey smell is or why it turns over but doesn't start... and what the hell is that new squeak???

That being said, they sound absolutely beautiful and ride surprisingly well. I've driven semi trucks with shorter shift throws (gotta love those 9-speed Eatons), but the long throws seem to fit the character of the car. I love driving them, but am a little scared to own one. On the other hand, I know a few people who have had them for years with little or no trouble though, so your results may vary!

EDIT: Knowing how bulky modern infant seats are, you'll probably have trouble fitting one. My sister's is hard to fit in the back of her MKZ! Boosters may work though...

"If you plan to DD one, be warned: they can smell fear ."

Greatest description of a 928 ever.

EDIT: that said, I love 928s.
