2008 BMW 5-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 230-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The sport seats offer exceptional levels of adjustment. I especially like the extendable leg support and the tilt of the upper back. The lumbar in the sport seats adjusts in up and down as well. see full BMW 5-Series review
2008 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6

2011 GMC Acadia Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
The third room has enough head room to even fit an adult comfortably and is wide enough to accommodate three individuals. It is one of the few SUV's that offer 8 seat capacity and has a larger interior capacity than a Tahoe. see full GMC Acadia review

6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
we travel with adults not children and find the 2nd row very comfortable. see full GMC Acadia review
2010 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6

Better 2nd & 3rd row comfort than the Honda Minivan (this is to be a daily driver for a family with 4 kids under 10) see full GMC Acadia review
