2012 Acura TSX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I find the heated front seats exceptionally comfortable. I am 6' 2" and have very good room. Note, however, that my wife finds the forward lean in the headrests uncomfortable. see full Acura TSX review

2012 Mini Countryman Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV turbocharged 181hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The room was not bad, but the seat bottoms are too low and the road noise in the back seats was unbearable. see full Mini Countryman review
