2006 | 2dr Hatch 201-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
The rear seat is not much use if the front passengers are over 6ft. Very little head/leg room. But you don’t buy this type of car to haul 4 people around. But in a pinch I’ve had 4 in there, and I’m 6’4”. see full Acura RSX review |

2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Cramped rear seat leg room. Rear door opening tight at shoe level. Swooping c-pillar design obstructs outward visibility. see full Saab 9-2X review |

Lack of any type of lumbar support is very uncomfortable. I opened the seat and installed my own inflatable device...much better now. see full Saab 9-2X review |
