Thumbs up if you were in high school, would u put in the JDM rear seats?

hey every1,

I have been driving my car to high school for a week and a half now. It has already been nicknamed the ***** wagon cuz i take home a gorgeous girl almost every day ...however, i have to pick only one to take home cuz of the fact its a 2-seater. How much does it cost to convert the bins to rear seats, and do u think it would be worth it?

-Zach

I've been driving mine to high school for a year and a half now. Make the others wait, they will just want it more since they can't get what they want. Either that or just make them sit on eachothers laps. They would probably get pissed with those rear seats anyway.

you can always throw **** on the backseats - I don't consider it 'no space' - but it probably isn't as tidy :p

as for actually carrying people in the back seat... do you really have a dwarf or amputee fetish (I hear some people do)?

Nah, I disagree. I mentioned it to him that he should get the backseats. Bottom line is the more the merrier. They can't really sit on each other's laps because its illegal. You will get nailed, I would know. I had five people in my FD. The occifers didn't like that. Thank goodness the excuse of them being drunk and I didn't want them to drive home and this was my only car and...... The back seat, while "technically illegal" will get you by with three of the ladies if pulled over. There is nothing quite like pulling up to a club and three women getting out; all dressed to the nines and willing to deal with being crammed in your hot little car for you, literally and figurativly. Hopefully

For those that said 'one girl' or 'just take the hottest one'...... Sometimes you just *need* more then one Or they *want* you to have their friend....along.... If ya don't get it, obviously you have no idea why Zach and I both see possible reason for this back seat thing

Nah, its a five seater. You and get two in the passenger seat, and two on the bins provided you move your seat up slightly for some legs, then squish em' back against the bin. For the passenger bin-rider, you just make the one on the passenger's lap squish up against the windshield so they all have enough room.

That is the whole point of this backseat thing. They will just think you are supposed to have a nasty small backseat in your FD.

yea pretty much whenever i have it out and theres a few girls that need to get in they usually just chill on each others laps and if another one NEEDS to get in the they lay across the rear bins. Good times :-). Btw dont get the rear seats, i think itl be a waste because they will be just as crammed as if they were laying on the bins, ect.

No, the rear seats replace the bins.

Yes, 90% of JDM FD's had backseats. 0% of USDM FD's came with backseats.


IMO, don't get the backseats. My FD isn't about getting chicks, it's about driving. The more people in the car, the heavier it is, the slower it goes. Get one hot chick in the car, thats all you need.
