2006 BMW Z4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
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 |

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 |
2005 | 2dr Convertible 184-horsepower 2.5L I6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
enough leg room for a six-footer (unlike the Miata we almost bought) 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 |
2018 Genesis G90 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2017 | Large luxury sedans tend to have good driving positions, and the G90 gives no ground here. The windshield is set at a moderate angle and the instrument panel isn't overly deep or overly tall, so outward visibility is good. (While parking I greatly appreciated the standard around-view camera system.) Large luxury sedans also tend to have comfortable seats--otherwise, what would be the point of them? The G90's front seats are among the most comfortable I've experienced. The driver seat benefits from a few power adjustments that the front passenger seat lacks: upper seatback recline, cushion length, and side bolster spread. The front seats in the Cadillac CT6 compare poorly. Their non-adjustable bolsters are spaced too widely for anyone of remotely average size, and the cushion between them feels overly flat and firm. I much prefer the G90's cushier and more contoured front seats. see full Genesis G90 review |
