2016 Chevrolet Camaro Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	Neither rear seat has enough headroom for someone of even my modest (5-9) height. I could scrunch down and ride back there for a little while, but I'd almost rather walk. Getting into and out of the back seat pose additional challenges. If you want a somewhat similar car with an adult-worthy back seat, check out the much larger, much heavier Dodge Challenger. see full Chevrolet Camaro review

2016 Chevrolet Camaro Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2017	2dr Coupe 455-horsepower 6.2L V8 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The problem isn't so much the room available in the front seat -- once you're settled, it's fine. It's getting in and out. This car sits low, and has short doors. Getting in takes a concerted effort to not bop your head on the doorframe. Getting out sometimes takes putting your hand on the ground and falling out, then jumping to your feet like "I meant to do that!" Come to think of it, there have been a couple of times that a large-ish dip in the road has made my head actually hit the ceiling. On the other hand, this particular car has the sunroof, which reduces headroom. Still, I'm only 5'10", and I can't wear a hat in the Camaro. see full Chevrolet Camaro review
2017	2dr Coupe 455-horsepower 6.2L V8 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD	There isn't any. Just think of it as a package shelf with seatbelts. see full Chevrolet Camaro review

2008 Ford Mustang Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

2009	2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD	Perfect seating position for both of us. Nice cush for your tush see full Ford Mustang review

2008 Ford Mustang Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 4.6L V8 5-speed manual RWD	There is very little rear leg room, but this car isn't meant to be a people carrier. It is nice that there are rear seats, but anyone that is not a small child will have a hard time sitting in the back. see full Ford Mustang review
2008	2dr Coupe supercharged 500hp 5.4L V8 6-speed manual RWD	waste of space, no good for seating, so should have been made for storage see full Ford Mustang review
2007	2dr Coupe 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed manual RWD	While our present government may blow off the standards & principles of the Geneva Convention, I still find them worthy enough to abide. Mustang rear seats are in clear violation. see full Ford Mustang review
