Regarding 2 car seats, we had 2 in an Mercedes ML350 and small-ish adults could fit in the middle. In our X3, only very thin adults can (very). That's why we're going back to a bigger car (only my wife can do it and we want the grandma's to fit ) |

Here is a good article about using center latch systems. Basically the distance between the inner latch points of the left and right seat can be too wide compared to the standard 11" which is usually not recommended by the car seat manufacturers. This can cause car seats to move too far side to side in the event of a crash.

Thanks. Look forward to it. From your headlight pics, makes it hard to justify $1900

Great car!!! Question for you: when driving during the day did you notice if the dashboard lights up in white? I mean the speedometer and tachometer not the odometer. Mine lights in orange at night but looks off during the day with no illumination at all on those two gauges. Not sure if that is the way it should be but thought they would had white LED backlight during the day. Tks

couldn't install the recaro performance ride with lionheart seat protector in the middle seat without blocking at least one seat belt buckle for the left or right seat. ended up placing the car seat on the passenger site but still leaves plenty of room for an adult in the middle and drivers side. good thing was that i was able to use the lower latches and upper tether so that thing is solid and extremely secure. if anyone else can install their seat in the middle (with the seat protector and using the seat belt, not the lower latches) without blocking the left and right side seat belt buckles, let me know.

You may want to try the Summer Infant Elite DuoMat seat protector. Less intrusive on the belt receptacles and the guy at Buy Buy Baby said they're better than the prince lionheart. I had the prince in our ML and that thing had some serious dents in the seat when we traded it in on the X3. Car seat was also rear facing the whole time we had it though, which seems to me to be harder on the seats
