What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Mazda RX-8

2011 Mazda RX-8 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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

There was very little bolstering on the sides of the seat bottoms. I was not able to find a comfortable seating position in the Durango see full Dodge Durango review
