2006 Acura RSX Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
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

2013 Volvo C30 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	2dr Hatch turbocharged 227hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual FWD	The front seats are wonderful. I tend to get stiff and sore when I sit too long in a car, especially my old VW GTI and our other VW Passat wagon. These seats in the C30 are very comfortable and I felt good getting out after a long drive. see full Volvo C30 review
