2005 | 4dr SUT turbocharged 210hp 2.5L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
6 footers are going to have issues getting in and out. Also they will have to recline the seat too much just to keep their heads from hitting the roof. see full Subaru Baja review |

With the comfort seat option, you can customize seat position to you preference, including lumbar and shoulder adjustment. Decent support for someone up to 6 feet tall. Heated seats work very well. see full BMW X3 review |
