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

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

2007 BMW Z4 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	2dr Convertible 215-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	low roof line, long doors make entryb and exit difficult see full BMW Z4 review
2007	2dr Hatch 255-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD	There is no rear seat. see full BMW Z4 review
2007	2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6 6-speed manual RWD	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 Mazda Mazda6

2013 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	This one, again borrowed from the earlier review, won't be an issue with most potential buyers: The Mazda6's svelte, athletically proportioned body comes at a typical price: rear seat room, as in the Ford Fusion, is merely adequate. Sitting behind my 5-9 self, my knees and head have only an inch or two of clearance, my shins none. Among major competitors, only the Chevrolet Malibu has a tighter rear seat. To carve out even this much room beneath the plunging rear roofline the new Mazda6's rear seat cushion is slightly undersized and positioned too low. That in the Fusion is more supportive. A deal killer? Unless space for large adults is a priority, no. If, on the other hand, space for large adults is a priority, then the Honda Accord and VW Passat are better bets. Even for small passengers, the Mazda6 Sport's rear seat has a key shortcoming. Unlike in the Touring and Grand Touring, there's no rear air vent to help cool the aft cabin in the summer. see full Mazda Mazda6 review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Mazda Mazda6

2013 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD	I am six feet tall with a long torso and legs, so I usually have the seat pretty far back. With the front seat in a comfortable position, the rear seats have plenty of leg and head room for adults, even more so for my kids. see full Mazda Mazda6 review
