concur. from personal experience -- i went from a honda accord sedan to a bmw x5 (wife owns a 3 series)...the reasoning isn't b/c i'm fat; rather i'm 6'3" and broad shouldered and honestly can't fit in most 'normal' sedans comfortably due to either headroom (long torso) or my arms/shoulders don't have a comfortable seating arrangement due to the b pillar.
i hate driving her 3 series for long periods of time - and my honda just always felt like i was an octopus in a thimble.
