Buyin a new car specifically for car audio.
Alright, I am selling my blazer and buying a smaller car. Really the only thing I care about is the trunk space and fold down seats. I have been searching for cars with 0-35,000 miles around the price range of $5,000-$7,000. I narrowed it down to two types of cars. The chevy aveo and cavalier. I don't think I will be able to tuck three 10" subs directly behind the back seat between the wheel wells. (i was planning on folding the back seat down during a comp and have the three subs right there if you know what i mean?) So I think I will have the subs at the front of the trunk facing up with the seats down. Is this bad for spl? Should the subs be as close to the front window as possible? (I also thought that if the subs were squished between the wheel wells then it would seal of the back of the trunk which I think would be a good thing 
) Thanks for any tips.

I have a Ford Focus ZX3 and you can stuff 4 - 12" in the hatch of it.....I upgraaded to a single 15" and the box is HUGE and still put my 2 amps a huge cap back there. It is one of the best cars I've had for stereo comps

so funny
that focus can probably be louder with a single 10 b/c of how much playing room u will have to make a much better, louder and more efficient box.
the fact that the cap is hurting your spl (oh yes it does) is funny.
how come your box is so huge? have u tried smaller? i run a pair of DD 9500's in a box thats less than 2 cubes total. trust me go smaller, ALOT smaller.
