I have a Nissan Altima, and both my hubby and I need the seats pushed all the way back since we are tall and need the leg room.

Re: Which infant car seats are good for smaller cars?
We have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and had the regular size Graco snugride placed behind the passenger seat and I had to have the seat up almost all the way and it was sort of uncomfy because my knees were practically hitting the glove box... I am 5'3''. My mom who is 6'1'' always had to sit in the backseat when she went anywhere with us.
Jeeps aren't small cars and I'm not super tall and either is DH, he's 5'7'' lol. I am nervous when we have DS#2 this month because I need to have the Britax rear facing behind one seat and we have the bigger Graco this time around so that is going behind the other seat. It's going to be snug!!
If I were you, I would look at your manual and see if you can put the car seat in the middle of the backseat to make it more comfortable for both you and DH.

I would love to put it in the middle, but I have a 4 year old DD who is obviously still in a car seat, so that's not an option for us. Thanks though!
