2+2 is a sports car method of lowering your insurance rates (or allowing 
you to carry a small kid or two).
Basically it means that the car technically has 4 seats, the rear 2 being a 
small bench seat fit only for toddlers.
Like the 911.

True 2-seaters usually (or used to) face a bit of an insurance penalty.
