What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2007 BMW Z4

2007 BMW Z4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6
6-speed manual RWD
Adjustable thigh bolster and seat back bolsters offer great support and the Nappa leather is grippy to prevent sliding around. see full BMW Z4 review
2006 2dr Convertible 215-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed manual RWD
I find the front seat, even heated, to have great lumbar support, my sciatica does not bother me even when I have to use the clutch. Those with long legs are amazed at all the leg room available. see full BMW Z4 review

I would not recommend the car for EXTREMELY long road trips or the like. Comfort wise, if you used to something that is very plush or soft the car will feel too hard on badly paved roads. see full BMW Z4 review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 BMW 1-Series

2013 BMW 1-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 You simply can't find a much better driver seat for a combination of long-distance comfort and support during aggressive cornering than the one in the BMW 135is. The seat feels firm and substantial, but with enough padding that church pew metaphors will remain far from your mind. The side bolsters are power-adjustable, so they can be snug when you want them to be snug, but not otherwise. Neither of the other cars has adjustable bolsters, and the Z's are too widely spaced for my average build. The BMW's seats also felt the most comfortable to me. see full BMW 1-Series review
