What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 BMW 5-Series

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

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

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek

2020 Subaru Crosstrek Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2021 The Subaru Impreza has a roomier and more comfortable rear seat than most compact hatchbacks. But in Crosstrek form the competition becomes small crossovers, and the rear seat in the Kia Seltos and some others is about equally roomy. A couple of adults should be comfortable back there. see full Subaru Crosstrek review
