| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 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 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The comfort seat option is to die for. There is NO production automobile mfg that produces a seat that comfortable. see full BMW 5-Series review |

| 2011 Jeep Wrangler Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 2dr SUV 285-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Even tho there are rear seats, I would never ride in back, too small back there. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
It has the ability to go back and forth but not tilt the base seat. Firm but not being able to adjust the angle (like electric 10 way) makes a difference for tall and full frame people. I will be looking to adjust angle asap. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
