Ok, I honestly think:

I want to know how many minifigs can be piled in there :-D

   I was thinking this too!  :)  I can see it now:  Dr. Cyber
   minifigs with Islander heads and white maiden hats to represent
   clowns piling into the little 8-wide VW...

   I can almost smell the stale beer and popcorn!

   Great little car, though.  Are those actual minifig chairs?
   They do look a little small given the "meatiness" of the rest
