996 Coupe V Targa rear seat room

[jonny996]

I am aware that the cab rear seats are more upright and not very child friendly but what are the seats like in the targa? Does the glass roof and different body line give you more space in the rear?

wasn't aware the seats were more upright. slightly less headroom in the back with the roof open, maybe an inch or inch and a half as the roof slides inside/underneath the rear screen.

Rear seat room is same with roof closed. Its only the cab where the backrests are more upright.

Hatchback makes the rear space slightly more accessible, e.g. space behind rear seats. With roof fully open it does rob some headroom.

Main benefit of targa for me was to get more light in the cabin, so I tend to keep it closed with the blind back.

I thought the rear ends of the targa and the convertible were common?

I think they are, but because there is no need for space to accomadate the cab roof, the seating is teh same as the coupe
