i can fit two adult-sized passengers in the back just fine. three would be cramped.

but i definitely did not get this car to ferry OTHER people around.

Compare to most coupes i think it does exist. It's the perfect size for a sports sedan (it's not a family car). I too didnt buy the car to carry passengers and i don't have kids so it's perfect for me.

I did buy the car to carry passengers. I sold my Scion tC for four doors and 306 hp. Believe it or not, the tC has more leg room than the ISx50 in the rear, but I've had four full sized adults (I'm 6'2", 230 lbs) in my IS a number of times without complaint, and I've had a 6' adult behind me while in my driving position. I do not, however, drive like a gangsta with the seat leaned way back and the b-pillar in my line of sight when looking left.
