Coupe Trunk

Why they make the trunk so small....

Going to have hard time picking up people from airport with luggages

(move the spares for extra space? seems to work...haven't try it yet)

Yeap only draw back about the car to me is the trunk space. Even my civic's trunk space is bigger.

Trade it in for a sedan. The Ford Crown Victoria has ample trunk space.

i agree... the trunk is useless, especially the hole to get into the trunk. who the hell designed it? good luck with the luggage... i couldn't even stick in the box from my lcd monitor in there (was no way to manouver it through the hole into the trunk). ended up in my back seat. these are the times where i miss my acura cl-s. oh well.

Yeah the trunk is small but, this is a sport/luxuary car so what did you expect? I actually like the way it is. Just enough room to put two suitcases in and still enough room in the back seat to take some friends with you. I honestly think Nissan/Infiniti did a very good job with the design on the G coupe. I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Except maybe a new NSX

It's big enough for a golf bag. That's all that matters to me.

The trunk does suck, doesn't hold my hockey bag very well, and for get about a hockey stick without folding the seats down, but I will accept the loss of trunk space for the ample room in the back seats. 4 people can acutally sit in this car. We traded in our eclipse for this car and the back seats have a TON of room in them. If you look at it, it is because they push them way back and take some of what could have been trunk space if this was a 2 seater.

well I'm pretty sure that I didn't buy a sports coupe for it's spaciousness. And I don't plan on picking up more than 1 person at the airport, ever - so it's not a problem for me.

Bah Its a sports car; the back seat more than makes up for it.
