I know it is a smaller sedan, but even with the front seats shoved up to that your knees are in the dashboard, that leaves just enough room for an average human in back. Under normal front seat conditions, crushed knees in back. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Seats are very large and not built for comfort for a thinner person. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review

The rear seat leg room is too small for American sized adults. A little more room would have made this car a lot more livable when family comes to town. This may be THE reason why I upgrade to a midsize car once this car dies. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review

2007 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6

Adjustable thigh bolster and seat back bolsters offer great support and the Nappa leather is grippy to prevent sliding around. see full BMW Z4 review

no back seats see full BMW Z4 review
2007 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6
6-speed manual RWD
I would not recommend the car for EXTREMELY long road trips or the like. Comfort wise, if you used to something that is very plush or soft the car will feel too hard on badly paved roads. see full BMW Z4 review
2007 2dr Hatch 255-horsepower 3.0L I6

There is no rear seat. see full BMW Z4 review
