3rd row seats... worth it? what is the weight?

how much weight does the 3rd row of seats add to the e70?

Do you guys think the price is worth it to add it in? it is just my and my significant other. No kids and no kids on the horizon (that I know of )

So should I throw it in or leave it out?

When you leave it out you get some additional storage under the floor, right?

Thanks.

Curtis

I don't know what the weight is, but given your situation, I'd leave them behind. And yes, I also understand that you get additional under-floor storage without them. Hell, if I were in your shoes, I'd probably just get a new vette instead!

LOL. I have been all over the board with what to get inplace of my 04 Range Rover. I have considered the upcoming M3, the 335i coupe ,the Jag XKR, the Vette etc. I am also seriously looking at a slightly used Imola Red 4.8is instead of the new e70. So many freaking options.

But I got toys that I need to move... motorcycles, jetskis, bicycles etc. So I have stayed in the SUV realm because of those reasons.

So now I struggle on what to get.

not much more storage space i think...my dealer told me they put a spare tire in there if u dont get the seats (?). but it seems like a cheap option to have. i personally got them because: 1) i think its better to have them and not need them then to need them and not have them (i dont have kids either)

2) when folded down u dont lose any cargo space anyway, and i question how much i'd actually use the space under the cargo floor.
