I wouldn't mind having a small back seat..big enough for the dog to ride in, while still having a hatch.

Actually, the rear space in the Z is slightly more generous that the Porsche's "rear seats."
Note: Rear seats are in quotes because they are hardly realistically-sized rears seats.

Have any of you been under your car...the space is being used...and if the japan spec does have back seats...then it's been stretched maybe using the g35 chassis...cause the fuel tank is just behind the chassis wall and if the seats were that high...it would only fit people 4 ft and shorter...and they're chest would be blocking your rear view...not their heads

If I remember right, someone posted pictures awhile back showing that when you pull up the carpet there are bolt holes for additional seats.. So who knows...

These rear seats are obviously not meant for adults, but would accomodate a couple of kids. I cannot say if this was a prototype or "mock-up."
