Can anyone tell me what the strap is for on the rear of the passenger seat near the top? It has a snap at each end.

It's the oh sh*t handle for the passenger you put in the hatch!

 

I saw the words strap on and thought I was on a different site! Glad to see you were talking about the one on the back of the seat!

 

You're correct, that is a whole other subject. You gave me a good laugh though.

Its tied in with the booster seat system for small children, however I would not let a baby travel in My Baby.

 

Yeah it centers the middle Child seat retaining strap for the LATCH system. It's in the manual under the Child Seat instructions. The LATCH system is actually federally mandated. Even the Viper has this. I thought it was amusing that my friends F430 had it too.

 

Talk about a misleading title...

I had this sick image of a rear seat somehow strapped to the car and people riding on the trunk...kind of like a rumble seat in the old cars!

 

Too Funny, that is what I thought also, at first!

Yeah, I was thinking the same, or what back seat?

 

...and I thought I got rid of my neon to grow up a little. Oh well, all in good fun. Glad to know you all have a sense of humor.

 

I had heard it was something to do with umbrella storage, kid you not. Didn't give it much thought either way. I think that in Germany the cars do have some kind of strap in order to tuck or stow the umbrella while you drive. That would mean you would actually take the car out when there is a chance it could rain?? Sounds crazy.

 

The 2 little hooks between the seats are supposed to be the umbrella holder...I find they work better for holding hats!
