2005 | 2dr Convertible 240-horsepower 2.2L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
Seats are aggressively bolstered, but fit very comfortably. I am a 6 foot tall slightly overweight male. The seat adjusts adequately to my height, unlike several other convertibles I have driven. see full Honda S2000 review |

Fits taller people than other roadsters I have tried. Probably comparable with modern BMW Z4 but I did not try that. see full Honda S2000 review |

I'm 6' tall with a 33" inseam, 149 lbs, 30" waist. I fit exactly in every direction. The hip width of the seats is exactly mine, the seat is all the way back, and the back is ever so slightly tipped upwards from full back. Comfortable but see full Honda S2000 review |

I'm 5' 9" and 185# and of average frame proportions. The seat bolsters are Proportioned for the Asian torso. So, the average-to-large European butt isn't going to appreciate the tight seat bolsters. This is why the bolsters quickly break down and need re-padding with firm foam. see full Honda S2000 review |
2014 Hyundai Genesis Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2015 | Unlike in the past, the Cadillac CTS is smaller and lighter than its direct competitors. Instead, the strategy of fielding a larger, heavier car has passed to Hyundai. The new Genesis is about the same length as the old one, and is only an inch longer than the Cadillac (196.5 vs. 195.5 inches). But it rides on a considerably longer wheelbase (118.5 vs. 114.6 inches) and is also significantly wider (74.4 vs. 72.2 inches). These more generous dimensions pay off in about three more inches of rear legroom and over two more inches of rear shoulder room. Based on interior measurements, the Genesis is actually a large sedan, not a midsize. Still, all is not golden in the back seat of the Genesis. Its cushion is mounted a little too low to provide sufficient thigh support (typical in this segment), and its backrest felt like it was reclined a bit too much. see full Hyundai Genesis review |
