I had 5 before, but it was 3 girls in the back who weren't that big.

I've had 3 in my Miata before, but that probably doesn't count.

The car is designed for 4 people MAX. Anything above this and moving can be dangerous, and undermind the integrity of passenger restraint devices.

With that said, I've had 12 people in mine. The car was not moving, it was a challenge, and one girl and two guys turned up pregnant. :D

Oh, and the pregnant thing was funny! I would be scared of scratching the interior with so many people in the car...heck, with 4 I'm all nervous and stuff...lol, I just got my 8 so maybe it will ware off....

4 max for me

Note: Unless it's an emergency...I don't drive anyone...anywhere, without a seatbelt

Four, but I had them in the all day- just ask everyone at the TOTD. One was a 6ft guy, in the backseat the entire time. And people say it's not comfortable back there for long trips- whatever.

Only 4, but all were over 5'10" and two of them weight 300+ pounds. I think it wasn't quite sufficient space for that.

Most I've had in my car was 4 adults, plus 2 full size luggage, and 4 carry on size luggage, and 3 bags, and 2 backpacks. And I'm never trying that again!

Resist... temptation... to... repeat... ashtray... joke... ... ... ... ... ...

In the Commonwealth of Virginia, the limit is 4. Law says only one person per seatbelt.

My rule is always one butt per seatbelt, ergo, four maximum.

Only two. But that doesn't mean that all the seats haven't been used. :D

I don't care how many will fit - more than four and things are going to start breaking; e.g. center console, rear drink holder cover, etc. CRACK!

I once fit 7 people in an FC. Hard to believe, but true.

Five. Two in the front and three teen-age girls in the back. Very uncomfortable for the girl on the hump.
