2006 BMW 3-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	2dr Coupe turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD	More padding, slightly larger than e46 sport seats, fully adjustable side bolsters and the Dakota leather seems thicker and softer than the e-46 leather. see full BMW 3-Series review
2007	4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	back support see full BMW 3-Series review
2006	4dr Sedan 215-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD	Heated, 8-way, with lumbar control: seems to have comfort covered for most drivers (wheel does not telescope). see full BMW 3-Series review
2005	2dr Coupe 333-horsepower 3.2L I6 6-speed manual RWD	My M3 is the only sports car I found that will comfortably fit a baby seat in the rear. :) see full BMW 3-Series review

2007	4dr Sedan 230-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD	very little leg room. see full BMW 3-Series review
2007	2dr Coupe 230-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	I have the coupe, the back seats are just an afterthought. see full BMW 3-Series review
2007	4dr Sedan 230-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Too small & cramped. Fit and finish was much less desirable than my past 1998 5 series BMW. see full BMW 3-Series review
2006	4dr Sedan 215-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD	Small. see full BMW 3-Series review
2006	4dr Sedan 215-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Entering and exiting and overall seat comfort are not designed for taller or larger drivers see full BMW 3-Series review
2006	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	A little tight for taller adults. see full BMW 3-Series review
2006	4dr Sedan 215-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The rear seats are comfortable, but due to the size of/shortness of the car there is not much legroom, a full size adult will have trouble getting their feet into the footwells. Mind you, the trunk space is immense for such a small car. see full BMW 3-Series review
2006	4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD	There is little foot room and the ride is rough. see full BMW 3-Series review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Nissan Rogue

2012 Nissan Rogue Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 CVT FWD	I'm over 6' tall with long legs, and I have plenty of room. I can sit in the rear seat after I set the driver's seat at a comfortable position, as well. I wish the lower cushion height/angle could be adjusted, but still very comfortable. see full Nissan Rogue review
