According to the post at the forum linked @ post #49:

A work partner got a call from his friend in Alabama the other night. He was all upset because while sitting in his Lexus SUV with his date in her apt. parking lot, a thug pulls his door open, puts a gun to his head and threatens to kill him. Even after offering his wallet and cash, the thug still says its his day to die. Thankfully, before the thug could do anything, the guy in the suv has time to pull his .45 out from between the seat and shoots the punk. He runs about 30 feet and drops dead! Now it turns out the little punk was only 13 years old! Of course the media has posted a nice picture of him in a jacket and white shirt. Also says he was the school quaterback etc.....Thankfully when you read the story and other related stories to it, the truth comes out and it seems to have been some kind of gang related crime. So far, no charges have been filed and he has left Alabama. But not without hiring a couple good lawyers just to be safe! Here's a couple articles about it:

Mine’s in a holster just off my right knee. The idiot asks you to open the door and get out. You draw the weapon, turn off the safety, and when the door swings open you fire from the hip.

Sounds like the perfect place, but unless you are wearing a skirt that would not be concealed, right? (Hey, what do I know - maybe you are a female!)

..the guy in the suv has time to pull his .45 out from between the seat...

Thinking of all the vehicles and .45s I have owned, I cannot imagine keeping one between the seats unless it was in a holster and even then it would likely shift positions. Seems like it would take at least 2-3 seconds to get a firm grip and get it pointed out the door even if it was where it should be (didn't shift around). Not that I have a better idea when driving except maybe something like a hammerless revolver in a jacket pocket.
