I tested both the Mini Cooper and Volvo C30. The C30, by far, is the most comfortable and easy to find a great driving position. Driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco without any back or shoulder fatigue! see full Volvo C30 review

I am 6 foot tall, 250 lbs and have plenty of room in the front seat. The driver's position holds me well and i do not feel like i am falling out of the seat when cornering. The passenger seat sits higher than i want, but there is plenty of room there as well. see full Toyota Corolla review
