The rear seat is comfortable for two, but three is a squeeze. see full BMW 5-Series review

This is technically not front seat comfort, but the heated front seat leaves something to be desired. At the lowest setting it actually gets uncomfortably hot below my left thigh, while the rest of the seat and back stay perfectly fine. This may be age related (the car not me) but again ... I've had other cars with heated seats and never noticed this issue. see full BMW 5-Series review

Good lumbar and side support, nicely adjustable seat and wheel. Shifter is very close to the wheel. Fits me like a glove, but my wife does find the seatback slightly tall. see full Honda Civic review

not able to fit a rear facing child seat, or very difficult to fit it. we had to even find a small size one. see full Honda Civic review

It took me a long time to find a comfortable driving position in this car. It may because of the low seat. I was finally (mostly) successful, but it took a long time to find it, and it is very different than my typical driving position. Also, not great on long trips -- the seat is generally supportive, but it starts to break down a few hours in. see full Honda Civic review

No access from trunk area. Also, very strong chemical smell in vehicle...off gassing from fabrics. The prius did not have near the smell. see full Honda Civic review
