Default Baby Seat Needed For A S197

My daughter was born on 2/11 and even though we have multiple other cars, I would like to take her out the 'stang on occasion. I've searched this topic but have not found the answers I've been looking for. Maybe a fellow Mustang Daddy could weigh in.

Being a newborn, I will need a rear-facing seat. We already have a Graco travel system for the other cars but am not sure what anyone else is using or if there was a more stylish, one with more of a racing flair, or one that is proven to fit correctly in a S197. Yes, I am crazy enough to buy a separate seat for the Mustang only if there is a good one out there.

Thanks in advance!

I just waited til my daughter was old enough for a front-facing seat before I bought anything cool. I used a regular rear-facing Eddie Bauer seat until she was 1, then put her in a Simpson Racing seat. the Simpson seat is actually a re-branded Graco. It looks cool as hell in a Mustang.

Now I have a newborn son and I've found that 2 kids arent going to work in this car. I moved the Simpson seat behind the drivers seat so the rear-facer can sit on the other side and even the the seat behind me is rear facing I still have to eat the steering wheel so I dont crush my daughters legs. It's unsafe to be honest. So now i'm going to have to move her back and see about sticking my son in the front. Kind of unsure at the moment on what to do.

I bought a Britax Roundabout at Babies R Us. It fits nicely in my mustang because it is designed to be used in smaller cars. I've been using it for two years now and it has held up great. It can be used forward facing and rear facing and is very light.
