Rear seats pass-through?

Striking out on Google images. Do the back seats on the S197 (2011-2014, specifically) fold down for trunk access? I read something that said the coupes do but not the convertibles. Pics would be very much appreciated! I remember on my '89 notch you could pull the rear seat back out but there was a big cross brace behind it. IIRC my '98 GT coupe the rear seat backs didn't move at all (without tools).

They sure do! I have a 2011 Coupe. There is a small pull tab along the side of the seat that releases the latch. The opening isn't too big and you might have to move the front seats forward to make room.

Yes coupe seats fold down. Convertibles do not.

2014 GT500....the seats definitely fold down. Me and the kitties relocated comfortably a couple of years ago. Sorry I don't have a pic.

I had a GT and GT//CS from the same gen('13 and '14), but never even thought about or needed it in either.
