I was sitting in the passenger seat for one of those rare times while I gave my mate a shot of my car and i got the impression that the passenger seat sat lower than the drivers seat. Is this the case or just my imagination?

 

There's a passenger seat?

 

I'm guessing your imagination. Remember passenger footwells don't have pedals so you can stretch/slouch somewhat more giving impression of more space etc.

 

I've thought that, but put it down to the lack of pedals, which gives you a bit more space.
