2007 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 |
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 |
2012 Lexus GS Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2013 | The 2013 Lexus GS 350 has so many things done right that it's not easy to pick the thing done best. After some consideration, I'm going with the highly-adjustable driver seat included in both the F Sport and Luxury Packages. Some seats are supportive in aggressive driving. Some are comfortable. Few are both. These are among the few. Adjustments with either package include bi-level lumbar (enabling a broader, better-fitting shape than the more common vertically-adjustable lumbar bulge), thigh support, and side bolsters (the latter no longer offered by BMW on the 5-Series). The Luxury Package adds the same adjustments on the passenger side, upper seat back adjusters, and richer leather. The harder, less adjustable, less form-fitting seats in the 5-Series are neither as supportive nor nearly as comfortable. see full Lexus GS review |
