Default You ever get the feeling the person who designed rear seats in the SC was......

......just screwing with us?

I envision a designer sitting at his drawing table going "I can't get seats in the back of this thing, no way"

then another designer walks by and scribbles out what we see today and says "I bet you $50 if you put the seats in like that the Americans will still try to get in it".

"deal"

.........for the last 20 years some unfortunate SOB has been squeezed into the back of an SC on the way to the club.

New bet...... the two designers are laughing their asses off.

i actually like the back seats of the sc, since they dip in it gives a good amount of space for peoples legs, im 5 11 and my friends who are around the same height can fit in the back fine without me changing my driving position. to the sc back seats

I agree, but alot of cars are like that. I think the front seats suck, too. I do like the rest of the car, though.

People have told me the back seat is "comfortable once you get in."

my thought is...if you want a ride and dont wanna drive your car with big seats then dont complain about it. beggars cant be choosers. i never change my driver position. if i crush you, then youre on your own.

that back seat is not that bad. i managed to do it with my ex in the back seat on several occasions. im 5'11" and she was 5'7"ish. we didnt seem to have a problem...

at least its not as small as the SC430 back seats or the Audi TT.

Given the size they have to be to fit back there, you're a sick man.

Haha knew someone was gonna take that the wrong way (hence the edit). In all seriousness, with my friend in the front and 2 female passengers, they said they liked the back seats, thought the bucket shape was comfortable. All i know is I don't have to ride back there so I'm happy.

In comparison to other "2 door (pseudo)Sport Coupes" they're rather generous. Of course, I've never sat back there .

It's not like I COMPLETELY care..... there's only one seat with my name on it

The rest of you are on your own, get in the trunk.
