Car + Trunk + 18" Sub???

[Black_Jesus 10+ year member]

im in the market for a car with a trunk capable of fitting a Resonant Engineering SX 18 in recommended specification ported box (6.5 cu ft @ 32hz) i want the woofer vertical, i dont want it on a slant to make it fit.

anyone know of a car with a trunk capable of this? id rather have something in the 90's rather than 60-80's doesnt matter if its domestic or not, gotta look decent though

Searching for a car just to fit a sub... Little *too* set on an 18 perhaps ?

try a honda....seems like everything is put on/in those...even if it is dumb.....whats makes a burban not be able to be stealth......id rather have that than a car.......find a impala ss or caprice.

other then a caprice, crown vic, or town car...ur kinda limiting urself..

my mother-in-law has a mk vIII(not for sell)..that might work for ya..

crx, if u want to build a cover....that would be ungodly fucking loud

astro van, maybe...

standard cab p/u with a pass thru

that's all my suggestions..

look here..

i was looking at a couple chrysler LHS's (like 1994's) my grandfather has one and back when i saw it i remember it having a huge ass trunk.. not sure if its big enough to hold a 18 though. any of u guys got one around u to measure or know off hand?

My 1988 Mecury Grand Marquis. Over 21^3 in the trunk.

does it have 19" vertical clearance enough for a box?

edit: **** nevermind... thats one ugly SOB

if i absolutgely have to.. i guess i could have the sub slanted...

what i was going to go with was something like a 96 dodge intrepid, or like a 95-99 chevy lumina/monte carlo and such, still looking for other options.

which raises another question.. if i DO put it slanted would it be best to have it slanted upwards or slanted downwards, i imagine if it was slanted upwards the bass wouldnt be as good in the cabin?

the trunk of our new camry can fit me and two girls in it and still close (trust me)

 

[Zeph 10+ year member]

your personal preference,

i wonder if an 18 can fit a dodge neon...

btw, my parents own a 04 dodge SX, you could fit an 18 in there no problem

the trunk in the newer neon (aka: sx) is bigger than the older neons
