2010 | 4dr Coupe 232-horsepower 1.3L R2 6-speed manual RWD |
The R3 Recaro seats had side bolsters that were a bit tight for us. I am below average in size as a male, and my wife is also very small and we found the bolsters cut into our hips far more than was comfortable. The seats are racing oriented only. see full Mazda RX-8 review |

I like the looks, but there is a downside. As a geezer, getting in and out of the car is not easy. You sit down low, and it has these little gangster windows. see full Audi TT review |

if you can call them rear seats... literally zero leg room or headroom in the back. rear seats (if you can call them that) is only fit for children or short people with no legs... see full Audi TT review |
