2005 4dr Wagon 153-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD
We chose this wagon initially because it was the only sedan we could find that fit 2 carseats and an adult, or 3 carseats comfortably in the rear seat. Also, the two additional seats in the cargo area are nice if there are more kids along. see full Ford Taurus review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Buick Regal

2012 Buick Regal Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 270hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Major seven hour trip in total comfort for both of us. Not one ache or pain or "I gotta get out of this car" see full Buick Regal review
2012 Buick Regal Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan turbocharged 270hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Since the car came from Opel (EU), it is naturally made for smaller fold. The rear is comfortable, just a little lacking in legroom at times. see full Buick Regal review
