Comfortable Front Seats, Inconsistent Cabin Quality
There's plenty of space for adults in the front of the cabin. The bucket seats have comfortable cushions and a nice shape that agreed with my back. The seats have side bolsters that are there for you when you throw the sports cars into a tight turn, keeping you planted. The steering wheel, however, only tilts; a telescoping adjustment would be nice.
Cabin materials are good in some places and unremarkable in others. The upper portion of the dashboard and sections of door trim have nicely grained surfaces, there's an upscale woven headliner, and the center controls for the climate and audio systems have a quality feel to them. However, there are also low-grade hard-plastic surfaces on the lower portion of the dash and sections of the doors, plus a snap that's used to secure the shifter boot and a steering wheel rim that's finished in leather but somehow feels like rubber.
The coupe technically seats four, thanks to its two-person backseat, but after a few rides back there your friends might start to think you don't like them. The space is cramped, with not much legroom and even less headroom; my head was pressed against the rear window when I climbed back there. Small children, on the other hand, should fit fine.
Cargo
The coupe has a traditional trunk that measures 10 cubic feet, which is enough room to accommodate three golf bags. You can create more cargo room by folding down the rear seatback, which is released by pulling either a knob in the trunk or a strap in the backseat. Once folded, there's a short rectangular opening between the trunk and cabin.
Features
Base 2.0T coupes come well-equipped with automatic headlights, 18-inch alloy wheels, manual air conditioning, cruise control, a CD stereo with USB and auxiliary inputs, Bluetooth connectivity, and remote keyless entry. In addition to its V-6 engine, the 3.8 trim offers an enhanced level of standard features, including fog lights, leather seats and automatic air conditioning.
More features are grouped together in Premium and Grand Touring packages, which are available for 2.0T and 3.8 models, respectively. The Premium includes a power driver's seat, Infinity stereo, keyless access and ignition, and a moonroof. Grand Touring V-6 coupes include the above-mentioned Premium features as well as brown leather seats, heated front seats, high-intensity-discharge headlights, rear parking sensors and heated side mirrors. Track versions of 2.0T and 3.8 models include all the features from their respective packages, listed above, as well as special performance components.
