didn't think carseats could look so sexy in a GS F-Sport.:thumb up: nice choice. Recaro does make goos seats.

at that height, you can forget about having rear facing setup on the driver side.

Here's the car seat from Recaro in the 4GS. It fits well and very comfortable for my son. I also bought the updated version but no pic from the other car. I'll try to snap some tonight.



Quick search from the Net for the updated version. It's much better than the old one...

We have two car seats in ours. Plenty of room for both my 15 month old and my 6 year old. Although, the auto exit feature sometimes gets my son's feet stuck if he's not watching.

Default Car Seats

Will three car seats fit in this car? We have a forward facing Recaro and a rear facing Peg Perego for now.

That will depend on the size of your car seats and the type of car seats.

Graco fits just fine... I test-fit it at the dealer before buying just to be sure.

You might want to consider a carseat protector pad. Its basically an undermat with thin high density foam built in. Would take a lot of the punishment and most of the denting from the carseat itself will happen in the foam and not on the leather.

Get those kick mats for the back of the front seats as well. They work great!
