Physically impossible to put useful seats in this low slung coupe. If you plan on using them more than once every 2 weeks, I guarantee you'll hate them.

Those seats are back there for space to throw stuff and occasional extra person. If you've owned a coupe you would understand. It's not a sedan for a reason, because its not meant to be a people carrier grocery getter.

The driver's car has always been about the two front seats. And the 2+2 imitates that philosophy by almost making the rear seats invisible unless you need them, where you compromise comfort for usability. Ive never ever thought of rear seats in a coupe (aside from RX8) as actually being useful to carry people. Because the hassle you go through makes you regret it every time.
