Default Somebody asked me about a 928 child seat...

But I can't remember who it was.

If you are looking for a Porsche child seat for ages 9 Months to 4 Years, or weights of 9 to 18kg, there is one for sale on a German message board.

Asking price is Euro 175

I don't know how safe or durable this seat is, but it looks pretty good on the picture.

I can put you in touch with the seller.

I also have a Porsche baby seat I'd sell. I used it in the back seat of my 928.
It has the blue teddy and Porsche pattern. Pics available. $150

Mike-what ages and weights is it designed for?

If it is the same as the one Nicole found, it's for too small a child and I'll have to go with this vest:

Thanks,

Nicole,
I think these seats are outlawed in europe.
You need a seat with a red sticker ECE 43 or 44.

Hi Nicole that was me who inquired a few months ago.

Mike - I'd love to buy your car seat. PM sent.

I would think the 928 back seats are kid ready! I remember way back in 79 I took my first ride in my uncles 928. Now the fun part is that this took place up in the mountains of Caracas Venezuela, or better said... no speed limit! His work partner had the 911 turbo, and my neighbor had a 356 Silver Carrera (yep you read it right) On a side note my first Porsche was a 356 my second a 1978 928. Anyway, I was 10 years old and I still remember how great I fit in the rear seat!
Oh, and back then no one had child seats, so it was nice sitting down in a car and not flopping around as it went screaming around the hundreds of turns!

Long, long, long ago as a child ,with Dad at the wheel, you could jump around in the front seat without a safety belt or safety glass and the dash had sharp hard edges. You could also discard your beer cans along the way. How did we survive ?

Hi Mike:

It would be interesting to see some pictures of your seat - just for reference.

Aww... yes, it was you. And I apologize for not remembering it was you... I'm getting old.

The Britax Star Riser seats also fit in the back of a 928. You can find them on ebay from time to time.

A lot of you didn't. More of you do now. Proper seat belts save lives no question. There are gaps in our family reunion photos because of no or not using seat belts.

James, not picking on you as it is somewhat a miracle many of us are still here, just thought it a good place to sneak in a PSA

I stick my kid in the back seat without car seat just to see if it will work. The stock seat belt sits too high and he flops around in it.

+1 on the Britax Star Riser. It also appeared as a Fischer Price (model name unknown).

I use a britax marathon.... you really only need the porsche child seat if you have to turn off a front airbag.

The Porsche seat I have with the airbag latch is the exact same as the marathon only it says Porsche.

I have one of these which fits well in the back of a DB9 and GTR, however, I haven't tried it on the 928, but will once my car is back from the garage.

They are called "Kiddy Infinity Pro" and we also use our on the plane without issue priced about 149 GBP. They are made in germany and the design has won many awards
