What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2008 Kia Rondo

| 2008 | 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 2.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Tall large people can sit in the second row with more comfort as they can in the front seats of our Honda Civic or Sebring convertible. Third row is not bad for short trips for adults and children would be good for longer trips. see full Kia Rondo review |

| 2007 | 4dr Wagon 162-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It is difficult to find a comfortable driving position in the manual seat because the seat tilts forward as it lifts up. Lumbar support is poor an the steering wheel is too far away. see full Kia Rondo review |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Honda S2000
| 2006 Honda S2000 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 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 |
| 2005 | 2dr Convertible 240-horsepower 2.2L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
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 |

| 2007 | 2dr Convertible 237-horsepower 2.2L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
Seat feels hard and is difficult to get adjusted properly. see full Honda S2000 review |
| 2006 | 2dr Convertible 237-horsepower 2.2L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
this car is engineered for speed, no wasted space.front quarters are cramped as one would expect with a roadster see full Honda S2000 review |
| 2005 | 2dr Convertible 240-horsepower 2.2L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
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 |
| 2005 | 2dr Convertible 240-horsepower 2.2L I4 6-speed manual RWD |
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 |
