Front seat comfort is another subjective measurement. Our experience driving our 06 and 08 Accords has been that we feel little discomfort or back pain during long trips. We did have more such problems with our 05 and 06 rentals, although not severe. see full Toyota Camry review |

2012 | 4dr Sedan supercharged 333hp 3.0L V6 7-speed automated manual AWD |
Without question, the most comfortable car for long road trips that I've ever owned. Our family of four took a road trip of ~2000 miles, longest single-day drive was 11 hours, and never felt any fatigue or discomfort from the seating. Seats are firm and supportive but not harsh or uncomfortable. see full Audi A4 / S4 review |
