can be done. not at all difficult. If you want to maintain your interior though, do alot of guiding.

He's only 2 but ... he goesthrough this pretty easy ...



and ends up sitting ... there.



Important things to remember. One get a big fluffy towel otherwise the carseats edge may bite into the seat. The plastic seat cover on that keeps it lookin ok and helps keep the towel dry.

I have 2 booster seats in mine, one backless, and one with the back, and it works great. I put towels down and a seat saver to protect the leather. My girls love riding in my G, though they sometimes ask if I can get a convertible version. "Do a whippy turn, Daddy! Do a Whippy Turn!"

MN Winters??????

Like myself you live in MN, RWD is useless around here in the winter, Buy a G35X Sedan, you won't have to worry about flying off the road with your kid in the car, plus you will be able to just open the back door and set them in there seat. I got rid of two 2 doors and got x's when I had my baby and it is maybe the best call I ever made. The X goes through almost anything and you don't loose any performance, in fact I think it's lighter? This way you can be safe and have a Kick azz car you can also drive all year round. unless $$$ is no object, then ignore this post.

I fit my three year old in there (three yrs this weekend ) with no problem. He loves hitting the button to slide the seat forward when I get him out of the seat. Obviously it will be easier in a sedan but it's not that difficult to do in the coupe. I do put a towel between the car seat and the leather seats though, otherwise the carseat creates imprints/scratches in the leather.

it fits fine. Babies r us sells a mat to grip car seats and protect your interior http://www.toysrus.com/product/index...ductId=2343251
I would recommend this if you plan on putting a car seat in the back.

The G35x is definitely not lighter than the coupe. In fact it's almost 200 lbs heavier. The G35 sedan weighs about the same, give or take 10-15 lbs.

Snow tires are a pretty good equalizer in snowy climes for RWD.
