Seats actually fit your body and have proper bolstering, unlike most other seats in this price range which are more like shelves for oversized American behinds. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |

I have MS, so comfortable seats are a must. This is the only car that I've been in where I could do a non-stop trip from Michigan to Washington DC in. No fatigue, no stopping for a stretch. It's that good, and VW throws in standard heated seats for the GTI. And they do mean "heated" seats, not "warmed" seats, not "take-the-edge-off" seats. Turn them on full and your bum will be roasting with in a few minutes. see full Volkswagen Golf / GTI review |

| 2010 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 210hp 2.0L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
It is small and crampy. A 6 ft person will not enjoy the backseat. It is good for kids and pre teens. However the boot (trunk) is quite small compared to a honda civi. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review |

Rear seat room is horrble for a car this long, a RX-8 that is almost 10 inches shorter can easily fit people in the back better. Headroom is non-existent. see full Hyundai Genesis Coupe review |
