2011 Chevrolet Camaro Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	2dr Convertible 323-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The rear seat is small and unlike the nonconvertable does not have a center seat. see full Chevrolet Camaro review
2010	2dr Coupe 304-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The interior leather seats are extremely comfortable to the point where my wife commented that she could sit in them for hours more.They are firm with good support. see full Chevrolet Camaro review
2010	2dr Coupe 304-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed manual RWD	Envelops you in a cocoon from which to manage the beat within. see full Chevrolet Camaro review

2011 Chevrolet Camaro Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	2dr Coupe 304-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed manual RWD	comfort is fine, but not for large adults. All the kids are gone now so no problem for me. see full Chevrolet Camaro review
2010	2dr Coupe 304-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Not to complain about a great car, but a muscle car like the Camaro is really bought as a 2 seater, but for short trips, can accomodate 4. see full Chevrolet Camaro review

2012 Jaguar XJ Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	This sporty, tailored theme continues with the shape of the 20-way-adjustable front seats. The A8's seats have even more adjustments, yet no matter how much you fiddle with them aren't nearly as form-fitting or as cosseting. The XJ's more precisely shaped, cushy (yet not at all mushy) buckets seem much more tailored to the human form. The space between their modestly sized but firm bolsters can be adjusted to provide more lateral support when this is called for. The only noteworthy shortcoming of the XJ's front seats: though the headrests can be manually adjusted fore-and-aft, even in their most rearward position these press a bit much against the back of my head. Your physique and experience may vary. The rear seats are similarly form-fitting, but without a center console to rob space. see full Jaguar XJ review

2012 Jaguar XJ Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	As mentioned when discussing the driving position, the XJ's front seat doesn't feel nearly as roomy as those in the Audi and BMW. But it also feels sportier. What's your priority? see full Jaguar XJ review
