Back seats -- no good for XXX

Hey guys,

I am sure that I am not the only one who has had a good time in the back seat.....
For some reason I feel like its much smaller than the back seat in the E46. (Used to have 328 E46) Esspecially the middle area between the seats leading up to the armrest from the ashtray seems to take up more space. Also the seats are freakin hard as brick.... Any comments?

It feels plenty spacious to me. Just remember to put down a towel, the leather is hard to clean, trust me. Front works pretty well too, just move the seat alllll they way back. The power seat does take a while though... in the heat of the moment that is!

Too funny! I have both models... if it weren't so cold I'd try them both out tonight in my garage to compare. Then again, ice cold leather could be interesting!

Perhaps if you don't want to see her face and have the Cold Weather package, you coud be in the trunk and she could be in the back seat. Just an idea.

We need a new poll. Which do you prefer for backseat XXX, Leather or Leatherette.

If you get the split read seats, fold em down for a bed! And always remember to take the furry handcuffs off the roof handles.

Front seat is much better, just lie it down flat.

This is why Lexol sells so much leather cleaner / conditioner. I have to admit, the 3 series probably has a better back seat for having fun than the A4. But, personally, I’m not much for the rear seat joyride, its too crapped in a car (unless you have a Maybach 62…then there is plenty of room, and 2 beds!).

Speaking of which, anyone know the Florida laws regarding sex in cars? I would find it too wired to look it up on Lexis-Nexis.

Yeah, my friend works in a building right on A1A (it’s the road right next to the ocean) here in Boca and one of the tenants had one of the first Maybach 62’s in the US and he took us out for a ride, the rear compartment is unbelievable! Better than BA first class!

Yeah, you can't really watch movies from the backseat. Vin Diesel sucks anyway.
