2016 Subaru BRZ Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||

2017 | 2dr Coupe 205-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed manual RWD |
The seat heaters are an absolute joke. We thought they were broken. No, they're just terrible. If you live in regular -10c weather you will want a a plug-in seat warmer.
The seats themselves are fantastic for driving.
Driver's seat does not slide forward when you move the seatback to access the back seat. Seems fine, who wants to reset their seat position every time.
The passenger seat does get loose when you pop the seat back up, but the chair slides around loose and left to gravity, will sit at the rearmost spot. Might be nice if it could sit in a divot at the full frontmost position.

2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
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 |
