2009 4dr SUV 297-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
More room than the other vehicles we looked at, example, G37 Sedan. see full Infiniti EX review

Anyone who has owned a Mustang converatble wll undestand the issues with rear seats in this car. I keep the seat backs down and drive as a two seater. Also Some may find not enough storage bins and cup holders are a tad back for those of us who have shorter legs. But not a deal breaker. see full Infiniti EX review
2009 4dr SUV 297-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
In agreement with 99% of all other reviews...back seat is a little small but it isn't to say that you cannot sit back there. Taller people may be a little cramped with head and legroom depending on how far back the front seat is positioned see full Infiniti EX review

The back seat is small, not a problem for my wife and I, it works just fine for our limited use. see full Infiniti EX review
2008 4dr SUV 297-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The rear seat is pretty tight on this car. It is not really meant to haul around families as much as empty nesters or women that need some extra room in the trunk. I'm 5'10 and can barely fit in the back seat if the front seat is positioned for someone of my height. see full Infiniti EX review

2006 BMW 3-Series Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 2dr Coupe turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6
6-speed manual RWD
More padding, slightly larger than e46 sport seats, fully adjustable side bolsters and the Dakota leather seems thicker and softer than the e-46 leather. see full BMW 3-Series review
2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
back support see full BMW 3-Series review
2006 4dr Sedan 215-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed manual RWD
Heated, 8-way, with lumbar control: seems to have comfort covered for most drivers (wheel does not telescope). see full BMW 3-Series review
2005 2dr Coupe 333-horsepower 3.2L I6
6-speed manual RWD
My M3 is the only sports car I found that will comfortably fit a baby seat in the rear. :) see full BMW 3-Series review

I have the coupe, the back seats are just an afterthought. see full BMW 3-Series review
2007 4dr Sedan 230-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Too small & cramped. Fit and finish was much less desirable than my past 1998 5 series BMW. see full BMW 3-Series review

A little tight for taller adults. see full BMW 3-Series review
2006 4dr Sedan 215-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The rear seats are comfortable, but due to the size of/shortness of the car there is not much legroom, a full size adult will have trouble getting their feet into the footwells. Mind you, the trunk space is immense for such a small car. see full BMW 3-Series review
2006 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed manual RWD
There is little foot room and the ride is rough. see full BMW 3-Series review
