I was reading the Si review:
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=107050
And read this: "Those new dimensions have added 95 pounds to the Si's curb weight, and have swiped almost 3 inches of rear legroom. Unless you hang with supermodels and NBA stars, the car's backseat remains usable. And let's face it, if you're driving a Civic, even an Si, you ain't hangin' with Tyra and Shaq.”

There actually making excuses for the Civic’s lack of lag room and there not even doing a go job Tyra is only 5'10" I and most of the guys I know are taller then that. And it gets better check there Mustang reveiw:

“What Needs Work:
Some mediocre interior materials, cramped backseat.”

Remember the Mustang rear seat is designed for 2 people and the Civic is designed for 3.
Mustang/Civic
Shoulder room 53.4/52.1
Hip room 46.8/49.2
Leg room 30.3/30.3

The Mustang’s seat is cramped, but the Civic’s fine because only Shaq would have trouble siting in them. Yeah no import biased there.
