2007 Mazda RX-8 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr Coupe 212-horsepower 1.3L R2 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Excellent for long trips. Even though I suffer from spinal stenosis, I did a two-day 1800 mile trip with no troubles and felt great on arrival. Most modern cars have comfortable seats, but these also make me feel like I am part of the car. see full Mazda RX-8 review |
2006 | 4dr Coupe 238-horsepower 1.3L R2 6-speed manual RWD |
Rear seats are functional for adults, which is unique for a sports car. see full Mazda RX-8 review |
2018 Lexus LC Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Lexus LC's rear seat makes the front seats seem roomy, but this is to be expected in a high-performance coupe. If you're over 5-4, there won't be enough room for your legs or your head. In a pinch, the rear seat will do, but hardly anyone will use it regularly. see full Lexus LC review |
