it depends - some people want to save every last kg in weight for performance reasons - me personally, i could do with more space in the back of my car for work reasons. because of some of the equipment i carry. i'm always putting the rear seats down which are never used TBH. some may do it because they think it's "cool", i'm sure there are lots of reasons!
