Default Will it fit?? (hockey gear)

I'm looking into 07/08 350z's. I play ice and roller hockey 2-3 times a week. My main question and concern is will my hockey gear fit? I'm sure I can fit at least a bag or two in the trunk, but I'm mainly worried about fitting my sticks in the cabin.

I'm sure there are fellow hockey players out there who can answer my question.

Thanks!
Zach

you'd have to lay down the sticks in the passenger area and have it extend into the center/rear lol.

not the best car to be hauling hockey stuff around in but you could make it work. hell go to a dealership and bring your **** for the test drive, that way they won't have an annoying salesmen with you.

No it won't.
Buy a Z and buy a beater as well.

my bag fits in the trunk fine, unless you are a goalie. And I lay my sticks behind my seats. No problems here

Not even if I angle them? I was hoping I could make them fit with one uncomfotable passenger.

I don't want two vehicles, so this information is important to me. If my stuff won't fit, I need to be looking more at my other options which are a 2010 WRX, or 06-07 STI.

A hockey stick can get in. I have a roadster and I can put my goalie stick in the car. It's a bit tricky, but it can be done. I can even put all my goalie equipement in the car, but I need to put a part of it in the trunk and the other parts on the passenger's seat.

Im 6'4", my sticks go along the passenger side door and over the seat near the seat belt, i took out the cardboard spare tire cover so there is a couple extra inches of depth in the trunk and my bag fits fine.

Yeah the stick will fit. I'm 6'3 so i need a long stick and it fits between the passenger seat and the door. It can get a little annoying for the passenger to get in an out though because it does obstruct the door way. But I drive my friend to hockey whos a goalie and his equipiment fits in the trunk with his stick laying flat without a problem.

I've got big *** shoulder pads and big *** pants. No way I would scratch the hell out of the interior of my Z by trying to wedge it in there. But then again I really take care of my Z. To some it's just another DD beater.

The guy I bought my Z from said he could fit 2 guys, 2 hockey bags and 2 sticks. Not sure about his car pool buddy but he wasn't a short guy, certainly 6'+.

It will fit.

what the hell is your bag made out of that its messing up your interior. You're right, I don't take care of my Z. It's just a car, its meant to be used.
