Really just a 4 place vehicle...3 across in the rear is not comfortably possible. see full Audi A3 review

Slightly too close to each other in arm room. see full Audi A3 review

Due to the position of the doors it is hard to get in and out of the car. see full Audi A3 review

The back seat is too small for most adults. I hadn't thought about it much when I bought the car, but it became apparent. I'd take friends to lunch and they are uncomfortable.Even ifa personplans on sitting small children in the back, they grow and the useful life of the car is affected. I wish the Europeans would figure that out. see full Audi A3 review

The Subaru has a more comfortable and roomy back seat, with easier ingress/egress. see full Audi A3 review

2010 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6

Legroom felt narrow for passenger over tranny tunnel. see full Lexus IS review

6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Lousey seats: uncomfortable and build is cheap and not conforming to human posture. But, seems last several years most cars have lousey, cheap and uncomfortable seats. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Cramped rear seat. Minimal knee and leg room when there is a front driver/passenger. Minimal room for the toddler when sitting in a car seat. Seats 2 small kids at best. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
This is a small car. Interior seating is comfortable but tight. Unless the driver is very short, forget about the back seat. see full Lexus IS review
2009 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6

Don't buy this car if you ever plan on carrying four adults. see full Lexus IS review

Yeah, the back is small but still big enough to handle for the poor rear seat passengers. see full Lexus IS review
