2008 Lexus RX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
rear seating and space is grand. front cockpit is a bit short and chopped but acceptable. Front seats are not as comfortable as in our 2001 RX 300. The front seats are minimally acceptable. see full Lexus RX review |
2006 Nissan Quest Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The bench back seems kinds stiff after sitting in the captains chairs.That is one thing they could improve. see full Nissan Quest review |
2005 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
MOST COMFORTABLE VEHICLE FOR 7 PASSENGERS AND THE SKYVIEW MAKES A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. NISSAN RELIABILITY OF THE 3.5L IS RESOUNDING.IF THEY CAN ONLY FIX THE ROTOR ISSUE IT WOULD BE THE BEST VAN ON THE MARKET see full Nissan Quest review |
