I think ISx50s were designed as a coupe with the convenience of 4 door entry... I'm only 5'8 and I have to move my seat up a bit sometimes if people are sitting in the back as they complain that there's not enough leg room....
But thas why our cars look sexy~
Give n take is all it is

I love that my interior hugs me like a coupe, its basically why i got the car. I was originally shooting for a coupe but took a drive in the IS and fell in love. At certain angles at night if its dark enough it looks like a coupe too (might have to be a full moon

Fits perfectly for me and parks in my small garage nicely. I have an inch of clearance from the side mirrors on both side. Anything bigger like a Camry then I'm doomed.

The other 1% is obviously when I have someone sitting behind me. It's a very rare occurrence. I didn't think I needed to spell out the last 1%, haha.
