Front legroom can be accomplished with a long seat track to slide on. But as long as it is more than 40", any 6 footer can drive comfortably. I am more impressed with passenger seating numbers though.While it is true that the Sedan does have plenty of rear legroom, there are different measurements and different ways used to measure. For example. The 2003-2006 G Sedan has 34" of total rear legroom. That is the distance between the rear seatback and the back of the front seat at its full forward point. The seat has 9 inches of travel, meaning 25" minimum rear seat legroom. I still don't know why testing companies have different ways to measure, instead of using averages. An M35/M45 has 36" total in the rear. A 95 Impala/Caprice has 33. leg room probably sacrificed to have a 5 body capacity trunk. Supposedly, a 6 foot tall male needs 30" to be seated comfortably. Anyway, hop into a late 90's sentra and you'll see how cramped it is with 31" total legroom. Or hop into a BMW 3 series. They have always had cramped rear seats. The 330 has just 31.5 total. An Audi A8L has like 42".
