Yes, they slide forward and back, but even with the seats full forward it is going to take a svelte person with good contorsionist skills to get in and out.

You know, this would be an excellent opportunity to lose the rear seats once and for all. The resulting well where the seats used to be makes an excellent platform for a pair of kick-*** sub-woofers.

And on your earlier comfort question, I have taken some pretty long trips, including a couple of occasions where we covered something like 600 miles in a day, most of which was not freeway. My butt got a little tired, but my shoulders and neck actually got a lot less tired than in my previous car, which had the sport seats. The extra support actually helps a lot.

I agree with your back, lower back and upper body feeling alot better int he sport seats. In my sport seats now i notice my lower back get real cramped or tired lol, never had that before so weird.

Also with the seats moved all the way up, i doubt anyone could get in, maybe a small kid but that's about it!
