TorpedoZone, I have 6 & 9 year old daughters. They love the Boxster. My 6 year old uses a booster seat (with a towel underneath to protect the leather!
) and the airbag turns off automatically based on her weight. The same for my 9 year old but without a booster seat. She has not sat in the car this year yet, so maybe the airbags will turn on based on her weight, but I doubt it because the cut-off is about 90-100 pounds.
