I would be pleased to if I knew of one. My guess is that any of the
van-type passenger cars could comfortably accommodate eight
normal-sized adults.

When I drive on Saint Patrick's Day, I get a Toyota van. I think it
accommodates eight but amn't sure. It's the same length as a Camry.

I believe the Ford and Chrysler corporations make station wagons that
accommodate nine. Whether anyone has them for rent, I don't know.

Years ago, on Saint Patrick's Day, I rented an enormous Chevrolet
station wagon from Rent-A-Wreck. Going down Bush Street, with the
heaviest people behind the rear axle, the front end came off of the
ground a couple of times. I didn't tell them that but, after our next
stop, I reseated them.
