The front seats are horrible- similar to airline seats, and no amount of adjusting or adding cushions helped. I'm 6'2 and my wife is 5'3.and neither of us could get comfortable. After 2 weeks, it was actually painful to drive this car. see full Ford Taurus review |

Not enough headroom for adults in the rear seat. Seat comfort is as poor as the front seats. see full Ford Taurus review |

Smaller than the Maxima. Third person would be uncomfortable, less knee room. The plastic trough behind the front seat is too low. see full Infiniti G review |

The rear seat is basically a storage area. No one can sit back there! But its really no different than the rear of any convertible. (like my Mercedes Benz CLK350) see full Infiniti G review |

Seats in back are cramped. Once the kids hit teenage years they are not going to be happy back there for long rides. see full Infiniti G review |

Seems smaller than the G35, no rear reclining seats anymore and the headrests stick up a bit more than the old car. see full Infiniti G review |

The bolstering is excessive in the lowest setting and the seat belt pulls too hard on my chest. The seat belt also digs into my neck. see full Infiniti G review |

Way to small to be of use with anything but children. see full Infiniti G review |
