2014 BMW 2-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2014 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 320hp 3.0L I6 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The driving position feels natural. Buttons and dials are easily accessible, and everything's adjustable if you need to. After a few-hour drive down highway 1, I noticed that my back didn't hurt like it does on most other cars. The seats aren't that soft to the touch, and are quite supportive in cornering, but they are very well-sculpted. Who knew a congenital back defect could be so useful in car evaluation? see full BMW 2-Series review |
2007 Nissan Pathfinder Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2008 | 4dr SUV 266-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
The third row seating is only good for small children. see full Nissan Pathfinder review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD |
Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review |
