Car and Driver Looks At Backseats

Car and Driver is preparing its 10Best list for 2011 which is scheduled for release on December 7. As part of its research it has gathered 60-plus new cars in one place. There were ten vehicles whose backseats made them take notice. One was the backseat (depicted) of the MINI Countryman. Here is what Car and Driver had to say about them:
Mini Countryman: Like everything else inside the Countryman, the two comfortable back seats are whimsically circular. At first you think they’re intended to look like toilet seats, but then you realize that they look exactly like the car’s ignition key, which looks like the Frisbee on top of the Starship Enterprise.
