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

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 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 |
