6th gen. Celica as a family car? Options

[Thundercat]

Hallo everybody!

I got thoughts about getting myself a 6th gen. celica. Is it possible to have a babyseat in the front, a girlfriend in the back and a little baby pram in the boot? Will my girlfriend be able to move her legs, earlier celicas tend to not have any room for the legs at all. Sorry for my bad language.

BTW, the name of the baby is Celica

Anyone got any pictures of this?

Did you seriously name your kid Celica?

Here in the states its illegal to put a car-seat in the front but why would you want the baby in the front and girl in the back?

Whats a pram.

Boots the trunk right?

wow...umm don't put your kid in the front seat. thats stupid. I have had a car seat in the back, and my older cousin in the front and my other cousin in the back. Worked out fine. It's a pain getting in and out and having to fold the seats back to get a child out of the car seat. I really would not suggest our cars as a "family car"

Yepp was my girlfriends desicson to name her celica Is space enough in the back seat to put an turned around baby seat in the backseat? Pram, was what a translation site called a little wagon that u carry the baby in, when u are doing some outside from the car exploring. Yepp, boot = trunk. So how much space is there in the backseat and in the trunk?

[Thundercat]

Goes in the backseat.
Goes in the trunk, folded thou. Not unfolded as the picture is showing

if you get a hatchback there is plenty of room in the trunk for a "pram" and there is enough space in the back for the car seat. But again i dont really think its a family car.

[Thundercat]

Well well, maybe have to get myself an old Volvo 245 to then

This looks like a roomy celica, perfect for a family.

the Child seat will fit find in the back reversed, i had my sisters in for months. And the stroller will as well.

yeah there is room but oh my god its A PAIN!!! and tell me that isnt a real pic of a celica wagon...lol!

[axelrduvirage]

mad PS skills...well done!

[Thundercat]

Drocay, everybody sais its a pain in the big booty what do you say?

I know of no state where this is true. Kids need a carseat but thats it. The other is just a recommendation because the airbag can crush kids or small people.

Yep, that's a real deal celica, but I beleive it was only a concept car, not a production car. I remember finding that pic a couple of years ago and I thanked God for a month that that car never made it in production!


Anyways, back on topic, as eveyone already stated, the celica isn't really a "family" car, but if you really want it then it will accomidate your needs as a parent. (room for the kid and misses, and a sporty car to rlieve stress as a parent. A perfect combo)

defiantly wouldn't wanna be the person stuck in the back... gettin a baby in out of a 2 door would get pretty old fast.. though when i was shopping for mine saw a advertisement saying "great family car" couldn't really figure it out

whatever you do, never put your child in the front seat.. in the case of an accident, it is very dangerous, especially when you got air bags.
if you ever read the warning label on your driver side sun visor or the drivers manual, you'll see why.

anyway, if you ever have a 2nd child that comes out a boy, might as well name him Supra.. hehe
then the 3rd child will be named MR2.....

as the years go by from 4th gen (86-89) to the 6th gens, it is said that the amount of space becomes smaller and smaller.
i've owned all 4-6th gens and i would say they do get smaller but not that noticeably.

I would only have placed her in the front seat if the airbag was disconnected of course, i have seen what an airbag can do. I got a friend who got an 5th gen celica and he dont got any leg room at all in the back. Supra..hmmmm....hmmmm nah think i'll pass that

azian_advanced, what did u do with your cd player to make it scream for help
