Seats are hard. Headrest forces your head to bend too far forward. Sculpted seat backs forces your shoulders too far forward from your spine. see full Nissan Sentra review
2006 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
With the front seats all the way back, children can barely fit their legs behind the seats. see full Nissan Sentra review

2006 Mazda Mazda6 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4
6-speed manual AWD
It took a while for me to adjust the seat properly, but after I did, I have to say the seating position and comfort rivaled many European sedans I have driven. I was not used to this level of comfort from an Asian-designed automobile. see full Mazda Mazda6 review
2005 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
I can fit three car seats in it. I can put my seat as far back as I need to and most adults can still sit comfortably in the back. see full Mazda Mazda6 review
2005 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Large enough for a six foot fiver and still room in the back. see full Mazda Mazda6 review

front seat is designed to short for taller people. see full Mazda Mazda6 review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 274hp 2.3L I4
6-speed manual AWD
For short trips the Speed6 is fine. Longer than 2 hours in the car kills my back. Maybe the seats are cheaper in the Sport vs. the GT. Fortunately I've only taken 1 or 2 very long trips in it. see full Mazda Mazda6 review
