    Wow, even a "toddler" seat doesn't fit in a rear facing position and requires a significant compromise in legroom. (Photo of front seat positions conspicuously omitted) If BMW only made a car with enough interior space to safely secure a modern car seat, not require a significant sacrifice in front legroom and have enough trunk space to easily transport a buggy. Oh wait, they do make the 3 series GT which is the ideal choice or the ubiquitous 5-series...

    What? A - it's a compact car, or at least it used to be. B - the car seat fits fine and still leaves front seat room, if you read the post.

    What?

    I just tested how our Clek Fllo in a new 3 series and there was plenty of space for it rear facing in the middle.
    It fit even better than a Mazda CX5, Mazda 6 and CX9.

    What kind of seat is it?
    How tall of a driver?
