I've never had an issue with seating myself, but what I have noticed is that a lot of people getting into the passenger side don't sit with their legs stretched out in front of them.
This may be because a lot of smaller cars give the illusion of more space by having the sitting position more upright with the legs bent more at the knee. These cars tend to have a correspondingly higher roofline.

Me neither, I regularly do >4hrs non stop in my SLK without any comfort issues
I find MB seats some of the best I've ever sat in (only my 911 ones are better) - Had a 5 Series BM, those seats were uncomfortable after 2 hrs
