No need for "fitted" luggage in C4


Recommended Posts

This is a bit "low tech", but it may save an owner some money that can be better spent on a higher tech item:

The 996 C4 "boot" space can fit a (rectangular) piece of luggage 22"x 14" x 10". Coincidentally, the Porsche "fitted" luggage "small trolley" in both aluminum and "ultralight" match these measurements.

The international airline standard for a carry-on bag is 22" x 14" x 9". Hence, all luggage OK for airline carry-on will fit your 996 C4 - and vice versa.

Please note that the space in the 996 C2 is slightly larger (22" x 14" x 15.75") due to the mini-spare stored upright, rather than the collapsible spare stored horizontally.

I put the money into the Das Schild, and some other fun stuff, and used a rolling carry-on I already owned. I hate rattles and dents.

hspivia, how do you like the Das Schil? Does it perform any other function than to "stiffen" the trunk lid? Also how much do you think the unit itself weighs.
